Assume that the electron in Li2+ ion is in third orbit. Calculate
i) the radius of the orbit, and
ii) the total energy of the electron
[Hint: Li2+ ion also has atomic spectra similar to hydrogen atom. while applying relevant
equations, use Z = 3.]

(i) The radius of the third orbit would be
= 0.529 × n²/Z °A
= 0.529 × 9/ 3 °A
= 1.587 °A
(ii) Energy of the electron = -13.6·Z²/n² eV
= -13.6(3)²/(3)²
= -13.6 eV
= 21.72 × 10^-19 J
= 0.529 × n²/Z °A
= 0.529 × 9/ 3 °A
= 1.587 °A
(ii) Energy of the electron = -13.6·Z²/n² eV
= -13.6(3)²/(3)²
= -13.6 eV
= 21.72 × 10^-19 J
