To find the ground state energy of the electron in the lithium ion \( \text{Li}^{2+} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the atomic number and the number of electrons Lithium (\( \text{Li} \)) has an atomic number \( Z = 3 \). In the case of \( \text{Li}^{2+} \), two electrons are removed, leaving us with one electron. ### Step 2: Recognize that \( \text{Li}^{2+} \) behaves like a hydrogen-like atom Since \( \text{Li}^{2+} \) has only one electron, it behaves like a hydrogen-like atom. The formula for the energy of an electron in a hydrogen-like atom is given by: ...
