A neon discharge tube emits a bright reddish-orange spectrum, but a glass tube filled with neon is completely transparent. Why doesn’t the neon in the tube absorb orange and red wavelengths?
Draw a series of pictures, similar to the ground states of , and .
An electron accelerates through a potential difference, starting from rest, and then collides with a hydrogen atom, exciting the atom to the highest energy level allowed. List all the possible quantum-jump transitions by which the excited atom could emit a photon and the wavelength (in nm) of each.
Consider the three hydrogen-atom states and . Which has the highest energy?
Find the distance, in terms of , between the two peaks in the radial probability density of the state of hydrogen.
Hint: This problem requires a numerical solution.
