Consider the hydrogen atom as described by the Bohr model. The nucleus of the hydrogen atom is a single proton. The electron rot

ates in a circular orbit about this nucleus. In the n = 5, orbit the electron is 1.32 10-9 m from the nucleus and it rotates with an angular speed of 3.30 1014 rad/s. Determine the electron's centripetal acceleration in m/s2.

Explanation:

It is given that the atom is hydrogen. And, its electron rotates in n = 5 orbit with angular speed 3.3 \times 10^{14} rad/s.

Radius of circular path = 1.32 \times 10^{-9} m

Hence, first calculate the tangential speed as follows.

          Tangential speed = radius × angular speed

                                        = 4.356 \times 10^{5} m/s

As formula to calculate time period is as follows.

                  T = 1.5211 \times 10^{-16} \times \frac{n^{3}}{z^{2}} sec

Also,     frequency (\nu) = \frac{1}{T}

So, for n = 5 and z = 1 the value of frequency is as follows.

             frequency (\nu) = \frac{1}{1.5211 \times 10^{-16}} \times \frac{z^{2}}{n^{3}}

                                   = \frac{1}{1.5211 \times 10^{-16}} \times \frac{1}{(5)^{3}}  

                                   = 5.259 \times 10^{13} Hz

As formula to calculate centripetal acceleration is as follows.

                  a_{c} = \frac{v^{2}}{r}

where,           v = linear speed

                      r = radius

                v = 2.165 \times 10^{6} \times \frac{z}{n}

                   = 2.165 \times 10^{6} \times \frac{1}{5}      

                   = 4.3 \times 10^{5} m/s            

Hence, the centripetal acceleration will be as follows.

                 a_{c} = \frac{v^{2}}{r}

                            = \frac{(4.3 \times 10^{5})^{2}}{1.32 \times 10^{-9}}

                            = 1.4 \times 10^{20} m/s^{2}

Thus, we can conclude that the electron's centripetal acceleration is 1.4 \times 10^{20} m/s^{2}.

On a planet where the temperature is so high, the ground state of an electron in the hydrogen atom is n = 4. What is the ratio o
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

1:16

Explanation:

The ground state of an electron on the planet is n = 4 compared the ground state of an electron at n =1. For a hydrogen atom, the electron energy level is given as:

E(n)=\frac{13.6}{n^2}\\ \\Where\ n\ is\ the\ ionization \ energy

E(4)=\frac{13.6}{4^2}=\frac{13.6}{16}\\  \\E(1)=\frac{13.6}{1^2}=\frac{13.6}{1}\\  \\The\ ratio\ of\ their\ ionization\ energy=\frac{E(4)}{E(1)} =\frac{\frac{13.6}{16} }{\frac{13.6}{1} } =\frac{1}{16}=1:16

Hence the ratio of their ionization energies is 1:16
