Electron volt, 1.18

Normally measured in electron volts or kilojoules per mole. 

In the electromagnetic spectrum, the ultra violet region is between that of X-rays and visible light. This corresponds to the energies hv ot one hundred to a few tens of electron-volts (wavelengths from 180 to 400 nm). 

A strong point of EELS is that it detects losses in a very broad energy range, which comprises the entire infrared regime and extends even to electronic transitions at several electron volts. EELS spectrometers have to satisfy a number of stringent requirements. First, the primary electrons should be monochromatic. Second,... 

Hrmrs in ion i/.ation potentials are typically a few ten tli s of an electron volt, a small percentage of the total. Stewart gives tables with... 

You can use Lhe senii-empineal an tl ab initio Orbuals dialog box in IlyperChem Lo ret iies[ a con Lour ploL of any molecular orbital. When req nested, lhe orbital is con toured for a plane that is parallel lo lhe screen and which is specified by a subset selection and a plane offset, as described above. The index of the orbilal and its orbilal energy (in electron volts, eV) appears in the stains line. 

Note that we are interested in nj, the atomic quantum number of the level to which the electron jumps in a spectroscopic excitation. Use the results of this data treatment to obtain a value of the Rydberg constant R. Compare the value you obtain with an accepted value. Quote the source of the accepted value you use for comparison in your report. What are the units of R A conversion factor may be necessary to obtain unit consistency. Express your value for the ionization energy of H in units of hartrees (h), electron volts (eV), and kJ mol . We will need it later. 

Refer to Computer Project 7-2. Calculate p in units of electron volts using Wheland s extension of Huckel molecular orbital theory. 

Plot the calculated first IPs as a function of the atomic number Z for the elements from H to Ne in the atomic table. The plot has a characteristic shape that should be familiar from earlier courses. These plots are frequently given in the experimental units of electron volts (eV hartrees x 27.21 = eV) or kilojoules per mole (kJ mol hartrees x 2625 = kJmol ). Write a paragraph or two in your project report explaining why the graph of IP vs. Z appears as it does. 

Dimethyl-2-butene and 2,5-dimethylhexadiene have absorption peaks at 192 and 243 nm in the ultraviolet. Which peak corresponds to which compound What are the approximate HOMO-LUMO separations in electron volts ... 

This table gives the first ionization potential in MJ mol and in electron volts. Also listed is the enthalpy of formation of the ion at 25°C (298 K). 

The yield of electrons depends on the temperature of the filament and on the fundamental degree of difficulty in separating the electrons from the metal. The latter is measured in electron volts as a work function, ([).
