Calculate the energy required to excite an electron in hydrogen atom from the ground state to the next higher state, if the ionsation energy for the hydrogen atom is 13.6 eV .

The energy required to excite a hydrogen atom from n= 1 to n = 2 energy state 10.2 eV. What is the wavelength of the radiation emitted by the atom when it goes back to Its ground state ?

Calaculate the ionization enthalpy of the hydrogen atom is its ground state. Strategy: The ionization enthalpy (Delta_(f)H) is the minimum enegry required to take the electron from the ground state to the first unbound state so that the electron effectively escapes from the influence of the nucleus. This corresponds to exciting the electron from m = 1 enegry state to n = oo enegry state.
