(a) Use Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom to show that when the electron moves from the n state to the n – 1 state, the frequency of the emitted light is 2n – 1 e f = п?(п — 1)2 (b) Bohr's correspondence principle claims that quantum results should reduce to classical results in the limit of large quantum numbers. Show that as n→ 0, this expres- sion varies as 1/n³ and reduces to the classical frequency one expects the atom to emit. Suggestion: To calculate the classical frequency, note that the frequency of revolution is v/2Tr, where vis the speed of the electron and ris given by Equation 41.10.
(a) Using de-Broglie’s hypothesis, explain with the help of a suitable diagram, Bohr’s second postulate of quantization of energy levels in a hydrogen atom. (b) The ground state energy of hydrogen atom is -13.6 eV. What are the kinetic and potential energies of the state?
The Bohr model correctly predicts the main energy levels not only for atomic hydrogen but also for other "one-electron" atoms where all but one of the atomic electrons has been removed, such as in He+ (one electron removed) or Li++ (two electrons removed). (a) Predict the energy in eV of a photon emitted in a transition from the first excited state to the ground state in eV for a system consisting of a nucleus containing Z = 21 protons and just one electron.
