Estimate kBT at room temperature, and convert this energy into electronvolts (eV). Using this result, answer the following:
(a) Would you expect hydrogen atoms to be ionized at room temperature? (The binding energy of an electron in a hydrogen atom is 13.6 eV.)
(b) Would you expect the rotational energy levels of diatomic molecules to be excited at room temperature? (It costs about 10-4 eV to promote such a system to an excited rotational energy level.)

- A simple illustration of the variation method is provided by the hydrogen atom in the 1s state. Let us assume a form of the trial wave function ψ=e–br where b is a constant. For hydrogen atom, V=-e2/r, so the Hamiltonian operator is Ĥ=-h2/8π2m V2- e2/r.The energy depends on r for the 1s state of the hydrogen atom so the angular portion of the Laplacian can be omitted and replaced by the factor 4π after integration.
