A lithium atom has three electrons, and the 2S1/2 groundstate electron configuration is 1s22s. The 1s22p excited state is split into two closely spaced levels, 2P3/2 and 2P1/2, by the spin-orbit interaction.A photon with wavelength 67.09608 mm is emitted in the 2P3/2 S 2S1/2 transition, and a photon with wavelength 67.09761 mm is emitted in the 2P1/2 S 2S1/2 transition. Calculate the effective magnetic field seen by the electron in the 1s22p state of the lithium atom.

Angular momentum and Spin. An electron in an H-atom has orbital angular momentum magnitude and z-component given by L² = 1(1+1)ħ², Lz = m₁h, 1 = 0,1,2,..., n 1 - m₁ = 0, ±1, ±2, ..., ±l 3 S² = s(s+1) h² = =h²₁ 4 Consider an excited electron (n > 1) on an H-atom. The total angular momentum ] = L + Š, whose magnitude and z-component follow a similar dependence to some quantum numbers j and m; as J² = j(j + 1)ħ², Jz = mjħ 1 S₂ = m₂h = ± = h Where j and m; are quantum numbers which assume values that jumps in steps of one such that j is non-negative and −j ≤ m¡ ≤ j. For a given quantum number 1, what are the (two) possible values for j? Clue: we can use the vector sum relation of angular momenta, then consider the z-component only.

An alkali metal atom is in the ground state. The orbital angular momentum equals zero and the spin angular momentum is entirely due to the single valence electron. A magnetic field is applied that splits the ground state energy level into two levels, 65 μeV apart.A photon, absorbed by the atom, induces a transition between the two levels. What is the wavelength of the photon? (c = 3.00 × 108 m/s, h = 6.626 × 10-34 J ∙ s, Bohr magneton = μB = 9.27 × 10-24 J/T, 1 eV = 1.60 × 10-19 J) Group of answer choices 19 mm 41 mm 38 mm 25 mm 31 mm
