Answer:

The energy required to ionize the ground-state hydrogen atom is 2.18 x 10^-18 J or 13.6 eV.

Explanation:

To find the energy required to ionize ground-state hydrogen atom first we calculate the wavelength of photon required for this operation.

It is given by Bohr's Theory as:

1/λ = Rh (1/n1² - 1/n2²)

where,

λ = wavelength of photon

n1 = initial state = 1 (ground-state of hydrogen)

n2 = final state = ∞ (since, electron goes far away from atom after ionization)

Rh = Rhydberg's Constant = 1.097 x 10^7 /m

Therefore,

1/λ = (1.097 x 10^7 /m)(1/1² - 1/∞²)

λ = 9.115 x 10^-8 m = 91.15 nm

Now, for energy (E) we know that:

E = hc/λ

where,

h = Plank's Constant = 6.625 x 10^-34 J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

Therefore,

E = (6.625 x 10^-34 J.s)(3 x 10^8 m/s)/(9.115 x 10^-8 m)

<u>E = 2.18 x 10^-18 J</u>

E = (2.18 x 10^-18 J)(1 eV/1.6 x 10^-19 J)

<u>E = 13.6 eV</u>

What are the elements that make up the compound, and what are some properties of these elements?
nekit [7.7K]

Answer: Below (=

Explanation:

The properties of a compound depend not only on which atoms the compound contains, but also on how the atoms are arranged. Atoms of carbon and hydrogen, for example, can combine to form many thousands of different compounds.
