(a) Using Equation 6.5, calculate the energy of an electron in the hydrogen atom when n = 2 and when 6. Calculate the wavelength of the radiation re-leased when an electron moves from n = 6 to n = 2. Is this line in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum? If so, what color is it? (b) Calculate the energies of an electron in the hydrogen atom for n = 1 and for = . How much energy does it require to move the electron out of the atom completely (from n = 1 to n = ), according to Bohr? Put your answer in kj/mol. (c) The energy for the process H + energy is called the ionization energy of hydrogen. The experimentally determined value for the ionization energy of hydrogen is 1310 kJ/mol. How does this compare to your calculation?
