6.38 (a) Calculate the energies of an electron in the hydrogen atom for n = 1 and for n = ∞. How
much energy does it require to move the electron out of the atom completely (from n = 1 to n =
∞), according to Bohr? Put your answer in kJ/mol. (b) The energy for the process H + enery

is called the ionization energy of hydrogen. The experimentally determined value
for the ionization energy of hydrogen is 1210 kJ/mol. How does this compare to your
calculation?
