In a Lithium atom there is one electron in second orbit. The interaction of this electron with the two inner electrons can be accounted for by assuming that this electron (the electron in second orbit) sees a nuclear attraction of Z' protons (where Z' lt Z = 3). Experimentally, it is known that 5.39 eV of energy is needed to remove the outermost electron from the atom. (a) Find Z' (b) Find the longest wavelength of photon that can be absorbed by the electron in n = 2 state.
