A cubic box of edge length 1.2 nm contains 10 electrons. Applying the simple particle-in-a-box theory, calculate the value of ΔE for the first excited state of this system.

 

Energy Levels for a Particle in a Box

The particle-in-a-box (also known as the infinite potential well) is a foundational model in quantum mechanics that describes a particle confined within a perfectly rigid and impenetrable box. This model is useful for understanding quantum energy levels and wave functions.
