Reference no: EM13987844

Calculate the uncertainty in the energy of the n=2 state of a hydrogen atom if the normal lifetime of the electron in this state is 1.3 x10^-8 sec.

Convert the result to electron volt units:

Compare this energy uncertainty with the transition energy from n=2 to n=1 for hydrogen.
