How fast do electrons move in heavy atoms? Estimate the answerby:

a) calculating the most probable distance of finding a 1selectron from a Uranium nucleus that has been ionized of all but 1electron

b) calculating the potential energy (U) of an electron at thisdistance from a U nucleus

c) take this as an estimate of the (average potentialenergy) of this electron. Use the virial theorem result fromExample problem 9.2 to calculate for this

d) How fast would an electron with a KE equal to the you calculated have to be moving?

e) Comment
