The energy of a hydrogen atom is 12.09 eV above its groundstate energy. As a multiple of h, what is the largest angular momentum that this atom could have?
Angular momentum and Spin. An electron in an H-atom has orbital angular momentum magnitude and z-component given by L² = 1(1+1)ħ², L₂ = m₂h, 1 = 0,1,2,..., n-1 m₁ = 0, +1, +2, ..., ±l 3 1 S² = s(s+1)h²=h², S₂ = m₂h = + = h +/-ħ 4 Consider an excited electron (n > 1) on an H-atom. What is the minimum angle 0min that the S can have with the z-axis? Clue: the angle a vector with magnitude V from the z-axis can be computed from cos 0 = V²/V
In a hydrogen atom, the electron is at a distance of 4.768 Å from the nucleus. The angular momentum of the electron is......
