Explanation Given data: Hydrogen atom emits a photon with momentum of 5.452 × 10 − 27 kg ⋅ m s . The electron in the atom falls from a higher energy level into level 1. Planck’s constant is 6.626 × 10 − 34 J ⋅ s . Formula used: Write the expression for Paschen series. 1 λ = 2 π 2 m k 2 e 4 h 3 c ( Z 2 ) ( 1 n f 2 − 1 n i 2 ) n i , n f = 1 , 2 , 3 , … and n i > n f (1) Here, 2 π 2 m k 2 e 4 h 3 c is the Rydberg constant ( R ) and has the value of 1.097 × 10 7 m − 1 , n i is the initial excited state, and n f is the final excited state. Write the expression for de Broglie wavelength. λ = h p (2) Here, p is the momentum, and h is the Planck’s constant. Explanation: The atomic number of hydrogen is 1. Substitute R for 2 π 2 m k 2 e 4 h 3 c in equation (1), 1 λ = R ( Z 2 ) ( 1 n f 2 − 1 n i 2 ) Substitute 1 for Z , 1 λ = R ( 1 2 ) ( 1 n f 2 − 1 n i 2 ) = R ( 1 n f 2 − 1 n i 2 ) Su

Quantum mechanics and hydrogen atom

Consider an electron of mass m moves with the velocity v in a hydrogen atom. If an electron is at a distance r from the proton, then the potential energy function of the electron can be written as follows:

Isotopes of Hydrogen Atoms

To understand isotopes, it's easiest to learn the simplest system. Hydrogen, the most basic nucleus, has received a great deal of attention. Several of the results seen in more complex nuclei can be seen in hydrogen isotopes. An isotope is a nucleus of t…

Mass of Hydrogen Atom

Hydrogen is one of the most fundamental elements on Earth which is colorless, odorless, and a flammable chemical substance. The representation of hydrogen in the periodic table is H. It is mostly found as a diatomic molecule as water H2O on earth. It is …
