. A general expression for the energy levels of one-electron
atoms and ions is
uk q°q²
E,
2h'n?
Here u is the reduced mass of the atom, given by u = m, m,/
(m, + m2), where m is the mass of the electron and m, is the
mass of the nucleus; k, is the Coulomb constant; and q and
2 are the charges of the electron and the nucleus, respec-
tively. The wavelength for the n= 3 to n = 2 transition of the
hydrogen atom is 656.3 nm (visible red light). What are the
wavelengths for this same transition in (a) positronium, which
consists of an electron and a positron, and (b) singly ionized
helium? Note: A positron is a positively charged electron.
Your friend says that what makes one element distinct from another is the number of electrons about the atomic nucleus. Do you agree wholeheartedly, partially, or not at all? Explain.
The structure of an atom is analogous to a model of the solar system. Explain why this statement is true.
