Positronium is a hydrogen-like atom that consists of a positron (anti-electron) and an electron revolving around...
Problem 1 (25 points). According to the Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom, the total energy of the electron in the nth orbital _ mg is E. =- 13.6(en) 16) where n=1,2,...and K = 4Tt€ in MKS units and m is the electron 2nK?? ? mass=9.11x10 kg; leV=1.6x10-19Joules. a) n=1 is the ground state of the Hydrogen atom and has value E= -13.6 eV. Explain why this value is negative. Define the ionization energy and calculate it for Hydrogen atom...
3 (b) The energy of a Bohr atom in the n-th excited state is given by the formula E--a2mc2 2,7, where α-e2/(4πέρ,10hc)-1 /137, m is the electron mass and e denotes the electron electric charge. i) Why is the total energy negative? Explain briefly your answer. ii) What is the radius of the electron in the n-th excited state in the Bohr atom? To answer that correctly follow the next steps Use Bohr's angular momentum quantization principle to obtain an...
