Particle in a Box: an Electron Is Bound in an Infinite

question 35

Short Answer

Particle in a box: An electron is bound in an infinite well (a box) of width 0.10 nm. If the electron is initially in the n = 8 state and falls to the n = 7 state, find the wavelength of the emitted photon. (c = 3.00 × 10⁸ m/s, h = 6.626 × 10^-34 J ∙ s, m_el = 9.11 × 10^-31 kg)
