particle in a box example

Postby Stephanie tran 1J » Sat Oct 28, 2017 2:40 pm

Can someone help me how to solve an example like this where you're given the info to treat a hydrogen atom as a one-dimensional box of length 120. pm containing an electron and predict the wavelength of the radiation emitted when the electron falls to the lowest energy level from the next higher energy level. I don't understand how to use the equation to solve this?

This is not part of the Chem 14A syllabus.
See "Outline 2: The Quantum World" on my class website for details.
Focus on the homework problems assigned.
