Consider hydrogen in the ground state,
(b) Use the integral concept to determine the average radial position. (This is called the expectation value of the electrons radial position.) Express your answers into terms of the Bohr radius, a0. Hint: The expectation value is the just average value, (c) Why are these values different?

- Ex. 1: Find the ratio of diameter of electron 1st Bohr orbit to that 4th bohr orbit.arrow_forwarda) Calculate the energy of the emissive transition with the lowest energy possible for the Lyman series, for a mole of hydrogen atoms. Express your answer in joules/mol. b) Is this transition in the visible spectral domain? If not, in which region is it located?arrow_forwardCalculate the speed of the electron in a hydrogen atom in the state n = 5, in m/s. Express your answer as vx 10° m/s and type in just the value of v. Use three decimals in your answer.arrow_forward
- This question concerns the addition of 3 angular momenta (as covered in the tutorial). Consider again the hydrogen atom including the nuclear spin (1= 1/2). For an electron in a 3d level, what are all the possible values for the total angular momentum quantum number (including electron spin, nuclear spin and orbital motion)? Select an answer and submit.

Place this atom in thermal contact with a reservoir and assume that there is only one way to occupy any one of these levels. Calculate the relative probability that this hydrogen atom at T = 316 K is in its first excited state (at -3.4 eV) relative to its ground state (at -13.6 eV). Write your answer in exponential form. An "eV" (electron volt) is the energy acquired by an electron accelerated across a 1 volt potential difference. This unit is used to describe electronic energy levels in atoms or solids (semiconductors, etc.). 1 eV = 1.602 x 10-19 J and Boltzmann's constant can be written as 8.617 x 10-5 eV K-1. If your calculator is unable to do this calculation try the web site https://www.wolframalpha.com In this site ex is entered as e^x, though exp(x) can also be used. If you haven't used this website before, a convenient tutorial can be found on youtube (for example,…arrow_forward475 cm /volt-s, and E, = 1.1 eV, 6? Given these data for Si: 4, = 1350 cm/volt-s, H calculate the following. a) The lifetimes for the electron and for the hole. b) The intrinsic conductivity a at room temperature. c) The temperature dependence of o, assuming that electron collision is dominated by phonon scattering, and plot log o versus 1/T. %3D 7.

Given that a solution to Schrodinfer Equation (SE) is: Y = eikx=coskx + i sin kx, where k = (2mE/h2)1/2arrow_forwardThe three lowest energy levels of a hydrogen atom are -13.6 eV, -3.4 eV, and -1.5 eV. Assume that there is only one way to occupy any one of these levels. Calculate the relative probability that a hydrogen atom in thermal equilibrium in a star, at temperature T = 9674 K, is in its first excited state (at -3.4 eV) relative to its ground state (at -13.6 eV). Write your answer in exponential form. Recall that Boltzmann's constant can be written as 8.617 x 10-5 eV K-1.arrow_forward) What are the allowed values for total spin angular momentum of the hydrogen atom having 1 proton and 1 electron, a deuterium atom and a tritium atom? Note: Your analysis should be restricted to just the spin angular momentum. The problem is not asking about orbital angular momentum.
