The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step-by-step, we need to analyze the information given about the hydrogen-like species \( \text{Li}^{2+} \) and its states \( S_1 \) and \( S_2 \). ### Step 1: Understanding the Given Information We know that: - The ion \( \text{Li}^{2+} \) is in a spherically symmetric state \( S_1 \) with one radial node. - The state \( S_2 \) has one radial node and its energy is equal to the ground state energy of the hydrogen atom. ### Step 2: Identifying the Orbital Type Since the state \( S_1 \) is described as spherically symmetric, we can conclude that it corresponds to an s orbital. In quantum mechanics, the angular momentum quantum number \( l \) for s orbitals is 0. ### Step 3: Relating Radial Nodes to Quantum Numbers The number of radial nodes \( n_r \) can be calculated using the formula: \[ n_r = n - l - 1 \] where \( n \) is the principal quantum number and \( l \) is the angular momentum quantum number. ### Step 4: Applying the Information From the problem, we know that \( S_1 \) has one radial node: \[ n_r = 1 \] Substituting the values into the formula: \[ 1 = n - 0 - 1 \] This simplifies to: \[ n = 2 \] ### Step 5: Determining the State \( S_1 \) Since \( n = 2 \) and the orbital is an s orbital (as established earlier), we can denote the state \( S_1 \) as: \[ S_1 = 2s \] ### Step 6: Conclusion Thus, the state \( S_1 \) is \( 2s \). ### Final Answer The state \( S_1 \) is \( 2s \). ---
