The Total solution for NCERT class 6-12
The ground state energy ofhydrogen atom is тИТ13.6 eV. What are the kinetic and potential energies of theelectron in this state?
Ground state energy of hydrogenatom,┬аE┬а= тИТ 13.6 eV
This isthe total energy of a hydrogen atom. Kinetic energy is equal to the negative ofthe total energy.
Kineticenergy = тИТ┬аE┬а= тИТ (тИТ 13.6) =13.6 eV
Potentialenergy is equal to the negative of two times of kinetic energy.
