Question

95. An electron confined to a one-dimensional box has energy lev- els given by the equation: E, = n²W/8 m where n is a quantum number with possible values of 1,2,3,...,m is the mass of the particle, and L is the length of the box. a. Calculate the energies of the n = 1, n = 2, and n = 3 levels for an electron in a box with a length of 155 pm. b. Calculate the wavelength of light required to make a transition from n=12 n = 2 and from n = 2 n = 3. In what region of the electromagnetic spectrum do these wavelengths lie?
