Q
Q: Calculate the ionization energy of hydrogen in eV if the energy of the electron in the ground state is -13.6 eV.
Solution:
Ionization energy is the energy required to remove the electron from the ground state. For hydrogen, it is 13.6 eV.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that the ionization energy is the energy needed to remove an electron from an atom.
Step 2: Know that for hydrogen, the energy of the electron in the ground state is given as -13.6 eV.
Step 3: Realize that the negative sign indicates that the electron is bound to the nucleus and energy must be added to remove it.
Step 4: To find the ionization energy, take the absolute value of the ground state energy: |-13.6 eV| = 13.6 eV.
Step 5: Conclude that the ionization energy of hydrogen is 13.6 eV.
