Multiple choice
An electron is confined in a 1D infinite square well of width L=0.5L = 0.5 nm. The ground-state (zero-point) energy is E1=π2ℏ2/(2mL2)E_1 = \pi^2 \hbar^2 / (2 m L^2). Using ℏ=1.0546×10−34\hbar=1.0546\times10^{-34} J·s, m=9.1094×10−31m=9.1094\times10^{-31} kg, 11 eV=1.6022×10−19=1.6022\times10^{-19} J, what is E1E_1 in eV?
