To find how much the binding energy of an electron differs in a hydrogen atom when the mass of the nucleus is taken into account as infinite (motionless) versus finite, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Binding Energy**: - The binding energy (EB) of an electron in a hydrogen atom can be calculated using two different approaches: one where the nucleus is considered to be infinitely massive (motionless) and the other where the nucleus has a finite mass. 2. **Binding Energy with Infinite Mass**: ...

Deutrium was discovered in 1932 by Harold Urey by measuring the small change in wavelength for a particular transition in .^(1)H and .^(2)H . This is because, the wavelength of transition depend to a certain extent on the nuclear mass. If nuclear motion is taken into account, then the electrons and nucleus revolve around their common centre of mass. Such a system is equivalent to a single particle with a reduced mass mu , revolving around the nucleus at a distance equal to the electron -nucleus separation. Here mu = m_(e) M//(m_(e)+M) , where M is the nuclear mass and m_(e) is the electronic mass. Estimate the percentage difference in wavelength for the 1st line of the Lyman series in .^(1)H and .^(2)H . (mass of .^(1)H nucleus is 1.6725 xx 10^(-27) kg, mass of .^(2)H nucleus is 3.3374 xx 10^(-27) kg, Mass of electron = 9.109 xx 10^(-31) kg .)
