Why is the following situation impossible? An experiment is performed on an atom. Measurements of the atom when it is in a particular excited state show five possible values of the z component of orbital angular momentum, ranging between 3.16 x 10-34 kg ⋅ m2/s and -3.16 x 10-34 kg ⋅ m2/s.
The electron in a certain hydrogen atom has an angular momentum of 2.583×10−34 J.s. What is the largest possible magnitude for the z-component of the angular momentum of this electron? For accuracy, use h=6.626×10−34 J⋅s. find Number Units
A mercury atom emits light at many wavelengths, two of which are at (1) 404.7 nm and (2) 435.8 nm . Both of these transitions are to the same final state. Determine the energy of each emitted wavelength (in J). A E1 = 7.908 x 10-19 J and E2 = 6.558 x10-19 J E1 = 4.628 x 10-19 J and E2 = 4.968 x10-19 J E1 = 5.908 x 10-19 J and E2 = 5.558 x10-19J E1 = 4.908 x 10-19 J and E2 = 4.558 x10-19 J
