The electron in a hydrogen atom can undergo a transition from n=1 to n=6, absorbing a photon with a wavelength of 94 nm.
How much energy must be absorbed for this transition to occur?
How does this transition show that the energy of a photon is quantized?
How does this absorption begin to approximate the ionization energy of hydrogen?
(a): Energy absorbed, E = h*c / =
6.626*10-34 J.s* 3*108 m.s-1/
9.4*10-8 m = 2.115*10-18 J
(b): Energy radiated during transition from n=1 to n=6
E = - 2.18*10-18J*(1/62 - 1/1)
=> E = - 2.18*10-18J* (-0.9722)
=> E = 2.119*10-18J
Since energy radiated and energy absorbed are approximately same, energy is quantized.
(c): Ionization energy of H is 2.18*10-18J.
Since the above ionization energy is approximately same as 2.119*10-18J, this absorption begin to approximate the ionization energy of hydrogen.
