(a) What is the wavelength of light for the least energetic photon emitted in the Balmer series of the hydrogen atom spectrum lines? (b) What is the wavelength of the series limit?
The quantum-mechanical treatment of the hydrogen atom gives an expression for the wave function ψ, , of the 1s orbital:where ris the distance from the nucleus and a₀ is 52.92 pm. The electron probability density is the probability of finding the elec-tron in a tiny volume at distance rfrom the nucleus and is pro-portional to ψ² . The radial probability distribution is the total probability of finding the electron at all points at distance rfromthe nucleus and is proportional to 4πr² ψ² . Calculate the values(to three significant figures) of ψ, ψ² , and 4πr2² ψ² to fill in the fol-lowing table, and sketch plots of these quantities versus r.
