Find the Rydberg correction for the 3P term of a Na atom whose first exitation potential is 2.10V and whose valance electron in the normal 3S state has the binding energy 5.14 eV.

Answer»

Solution :The ENRGY of the `3p` state must be `-(E_(0)-E varphi)` where `-E_(0)` is the ENERGY of the `3S` state. Then
`E_(0)-evarphi_(1)=( ħR)/((3+alpha_(1))^(2))`
so `alpha_(1)=sqrt(( ħR)/(E_(0)-e varphi_(1)))-3 =-0.885`
