1). The Bohr Model of the hydrogen atom proposed that there were
very specific energy states that the electron could be in. These
states were called stationary orbits or stationary states. Higher
energy states were further from the nucleus. These orbits were
thought to be essentially spherical shells in which the electrons
orbited at a fixed radius or distance from the nucleus. The
smallest orbit is represented by n=1, the next smallest n=2, and so
on, where n is a positive integer representing the shell or
orbit.
What is the radius of the n=4 orbit for Hydrogen (Z=1)?
2). Each shell has a very specific energy. Note that the energy
of zero is used to represent the level at which an electron becomes
unbound from the nucleus and can fly free. The energies for the
Bohr orbits are all negative, which means they are all shells in
which the electron is bound in orbit around the nucleus.
What is the energy for the n=3 Bohr orbit for Hydrogen (Z=1)
expressed in Joules? (do not enter units)
3). What is the energy for the n=3 Bohr orbit for Hydrogen (Z=1) expressed in eV? (do not enter units)
4). The Bohr Model does a good job of calculating the energy
levels for ions that are hydrogen-like, meaning they may have more
protons in the nucleus, but they only have one electron. Examples
would be He+1, Li+2, Be+3,
....
What is the radius of the n=2 Bohr orbit for Be+3
(Beryllium, Z=4)?
5). What is the energy of the n=5 Bohr orbit for B+4 (Boron, Z=5)? You can use your choice of energy units. Make sure to enter units this time.
