Review questions, must show your work: A scientist is trying to eject electrons from a metal by shining a light on it. The electrons are bound inside the metal need energy of 2.0 eV to escape. Which wavelength will eject electrons? a. 350 nm b. 420 nm c. any of these d. 600 nm e. none of these (Write a possible answer in …) The Pauli Exclusion Principle says that… The orbital quantum number l determines the (a) direction of...
Consider the real energy levels of hydrogen which include the fine structure (relativistic spin orbit coupling) (a) If the system is placed in a strong magnetic field of about 40000 Gauss, how many levels does the n=3 state splits into? (b) What is the energy difference (in eV) between them? The energy levels of the hydrogen atom including the fine structure correction (but excluding Zeeman effect corrections) can be written as
4. When a hydrogen atom is bombarded, the atom may be raised into a higher energy state. As the excited electron falls back to the lower energy levels, light is emitted. What are the three longest-wavelength spectral lines emitted by the hydrogen atom as it returns to the n = 1 state from higher energy states? Give your answers to three significant figures. The lowest possible state, n = 1, corresponds to the electron in its smallest possible orbit; it...
A certain type of atom (not hydrogen) has three energy levels numbered 1, 2, and 3, as shown in the upper illustration. There are three possible transitions between these levels that lead to emission of a photon: 3 ® 1, 3 ® 2, and 2 ® 1. The lower illustration shows the emission spectrum from a gas of these atoms. There are three emission lines, A, B, and C. (a) Rank the photons emitted in the transitions 3 ®...

7. The energy levels of the hydrogen atom in the absence of external magnetic field are given by 13.6eV Consider a hydrogen atom at the ground state illuminated by light with frequency v (a). What should this frequency be for the atom to jump to the first excited state? Compute v if Planck's constant is h-6.63 x 1034 Js. (b).

Part A) The figure shows part of the energy level diagram of a certain atom. The energy spacing between levels 1 and 2 is twice that between 2 and 3. If an electron makes a transition from level 3 to level 2, the radiation of wavelength A is emitted. What possible radiation wavelengths might be produced by other transitions between the three energy levels?Part B)What is the energy required to remove the electron from a hydrogen atom in the n 11...
11.17 A positronium atom is a hydrogen-like atom with a positron (m = meq = te, spin 1/2) as a nucleus and a bound electron. The hyperfine structure in the ground state of positronium is described by a perturbation Hamiltonian H' = AS, S/hwhere S, are the spins of the elec- tron and positron. a) What is the Bohr energy of the ground state of positronium (ignore hyperfine structure for now)? b) The electron and positron spins can be coupled...
Problem 2. (30 points) (a) (3 points) The Stark effect (shift of energy levels by a constant external electric field) in atom is usually observed to be quadratic in the field strength. Explain why.
