Assume that an electron in an atom can be treated as if it were confined to a box of width 3.6 angstrom. What is the ground state energy of this electron? Hint Ground state energy of electron in a box of width 3.6 angstrom is eV. Note: For the purpose of comparison, note that kinetic energy of an electron in hydrogen atom ground state is 13.6 eV. Does this model seem reasonable?
