Consider the electron of a Li2+ ion that undergoes a transition from a higher energy state n to its adjacent lower energy state n – 1 (e.g. n = 2→1, 3→2, 4→3, etc) and emits a photon. Suppose the emitted photon is used to strike the surface of potassium, which has a threshold frequency of 5.464 × 10^14 s–1.a) Whatisthemaximuminitialquantumnumber,n, that is required in order to emit a photon with high enough energy to generate a photocurrent from the metal surface?b) Usingthenvaluesolvedinpart(a), calculate the maximum speed of the photoelectron from potassium. If you couldn’t solve for n in part (a), use n = 3.
Light with a frequency of 2.89×10152.89×1015 Hz ejects electrons from the surface of aluminum, which has a work function of 4.28 eV. What is the minimum de Broglie wavelength of the ejected electrons?
The light observed that is emitted by a hydrogen atom is explained by a simple model of its structure with one proton in its nucleus and an electron bound to it, but only with internal energies of the atom satisfying
EH=−RH/n2EH=−RH/n2
where RHRH is the Rydberg constant and nn is an integer such as 1, 2, 3 ... and so on. When a hydrogen atom in an excited state emits light, the photon carries away energy and the atom goes into a lower energy state.
Be careful about units. The Rydberg constant in eV is
13.605693009 eV
That would be multiplied by the charge on the electron 1.602× 10-19 C to give
2.18× 10-18 J
A photon with this energy would have a frequency f such that E=hf. Its wavelength would be λ = c/f = hc/E. Sometimes it is handy to measure the Rydberg constant in units of 1/length for this reason. You may see it given as 109737 cm-1 if you search the web, so be aware that's not joules.
