An electron is in a three-dimensional box with side lengths LX = 0.600 nm and LY = LZ = 2LX. What are the quantum numbers nX, nY, and nZ and the energies, in eV, for the four lowest energy levels? What is the degeneracy of each (including the degeneracy due to spin)?
The electrons within the T-system of conjugated hydrocarbons may be treated as particles confined within
a one-dimensional box. The lowest energy transition in the spectrum of a polyene hydrocarbon
corresponds to excitation of an electron from the highest occupied energy level to the lowest unoccupied
level. If the hydrocarbon contains 6 electrons and has a spectral transition at a wavelength of 278 nm,
estimate the effective length of the TT-system. The estimated length =
nm.
Hint: you will need to fill the energy diagram to know which energy levels are involved in the transition.
