The uncertainty principle has negligible consequences for macroscopic objects. However, the properties of nanoparticles, which have dimensions
Question:
The uncertainty principle has negligible consequences for macroscopic objects. However, the properties of nanoparticles, which have dimensions ranging from a few to several hundred nanometers, may be different from those of larger particles.
(a) Calculate the minimum uncertainty in the speed of an electron confined in a nanoparticle with a diameter of 2.00 * 102 nm.
(b) Calculate the minimum uncertainty in the speed of a mobile Li+ ion confined to a nanoparticle of the same size.
(c) Which could be specified more accurately in a nanoparticle, the speed of an electron or the speed of a Li+ ion?
