The first five energy levels of the hydrogen atom are at n = 1, − 13.6 eV; n = 2, − 3.4 eV;n = 3, − 1.51 eV; n = 4, − 0.85 eV; n = 5, − 0.54 eV. A hydrogen discharge lamp givesan infrared spectrum that includes a sharp line at a wavelength of 4 µm, coming from electronsexcited by the discharge to a higher level, and then jump down to a lower level. Determine theenergy lost by these electrons, and identify the higher and lower levels involved.
Which of the following is a permissable set of quantum numbers for an electron in a hydrogen atom? The atom may be in an excited state (ie. the electron need not be in its ground state).
a) n = 6, l = -5, ml = +4, ms = +1/2
b) n = 4, l = -2, ml = +2, ms = -1/2
c) n = 2, l = 2, ml = +1, ms = -1/2
d) n = 5, l = 1, ml = -1, ms = +1/2
e) n = 3, l = 2, ml = -2, ms = -1
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.
