(4) Electronic energy level of a hydrogen atom is given by R ; п %3D 1,2, 3,... n2 E = - and R = 13.6 eV. Each energy level has degeneracy 2n2 (degeneracy is the number of equivalent configurations associated with the energy level). (a) Derive the partition function for a hydrogen atom at a constant temperature. (b) Consider that the energy level of a hydrogen atom is approximated by a two level system, n = 1,2. Estimate the mean energy at 300 K.
