The ground-state wave function of a hydrogen atom is: 1 where r is distance from the nucleus and a, is the Bohr radius (53 pm). Following the Born approximation, calculate the probability, i.e., |w?dz, that the electron will be found somewhere within a small sphere of radius, ro, 1.2 pm centred on the nucleus.
The average value (or expected value) of r^k, where r is the distance of an electron in the state with principal quantum number n and orbital quantum number leo proton in the hydrogen atom is given by the integral below, where Pnl(r) is a radial probability density of the state with quantum number n, lek is an arbitrary power. For an electron in the ground state of the hydrogen atom. a) calculate <r>nl in terms of the Bohr radius aB b) calculate <l/r>nl in terms of aB c) calculate <U(r)>nl, where U(r) = -e^2/(4piE0r). Respond in eV units. d) Considering also that the electron is in the ground state, estimate the expected value for two kinetic energy <K> and its mean quadratic velocity v. e) Is it justifiable to disregard relativistic corrections for this system? Justify.
