29 Μαΐ 2024 · When an atom absorbs energy, its electrons jump from a lower energy level to a higher one, resulting in an excited state. This concept is crucial in many areas of physics, including quantum mechanics, spectroscopy, and photonics. How is an Excited State Achieved?
In 1914, James Franck and Gustav Hertz performed an experiment which demonstrated the existence of excited states in mercury atoms, helping to confirm the quantum theory which predicted that electrons occupied only discrete, quantized energy states.
excitation, in physics, the addition of a discrete amount of energy (called excitation energy) to a system—such as an atomic nucleus, an atom, or a molecule —that results in its alteration, ordinarily from the condition of lowest energy (ground state) to one of higher energy (excited state).
In quantum mechanics, an excited state of a system (such as an atom, molecule or nucleus) is any quantum state of the system that has a higher energy than the ground state (that is, more energy than the absolute minimum).
16 Μαρ 2023 · To consider what happens in the process of fluorescence, we need to think of the possible energy states for a ground and excited state system. Draw an energy level diagram for a typical organic compound with π π and π π * orbitals.
First, we must determine nn for the absorbed wavelength \(\lambda = 93.7 \, nm\). Then, we can use Equation \ref{6.45} to find the energy \(E_n\) of the excited state and its ionization energy \(E_{\infty,n}\), and use Equation \ref{6.40} to find the radius \(r_n\) of the atom in the excited state. To estimate n, we use Equation \ref{6.49}.
Evaluate how understanding excited states enhances our knowledge of atomic behavior and chemical reactions at a molecular level. Understanding excited states allows us to better grasp how atoms behave under different conditions and how they interact during chemical reactions.
