A doubly ionized lithium atom (Li++) is one that has had two of its three electrons removed. The energy levels of the remaining single-electron ion are closely related to those of the hydrogen atom. The nuclear charge for lithium is +3e instead of just +e. How are the energy levels related to those of hydrogen? How is the radius of the ion in the ground level related to that of the hydrogen atom? Explain.
