The total probability of finding an electron in the hydrogen atom is related to the integral
∫ r2 e-2r/ao dr
Where r is the distance of the electron from the nucleus and ao is the Bohr radius. Evaluate thisintegral.
Using the Bohr formula for the radius of an electron orbit,estimate the average distance from the nucleus for anelectron in the innermost n=1 orbit of a uranium atom(z=92)Approximately how much energy would berequired to remove this innermost electron?
Given a H atom in its 1s state, compute the probability that the electron is found within 0 and 1.8 armstrong from the nucleus. SHOW FULL AND COMPLETE PROCEDURE IN A CLEAR AND ORDERED WAY
