Subject: Physical Chemistry · Chapter: Quantum Chemistry · Topic: Quantum Chemistry – General · Exam: CSIR NET JUNE 2016 · Marks: 2 · Difficulty: Medium

The correct statement about the difference of second and first excited state energies $(\Delta E)$ of a particle in 1-D, 2-D square and 3-D cubic boxes with same length for each, is
(a)$\Delta E$ (1-D box) = $\Delta E$ (2-D box) = $\Delta E$ (3-D box)
(b)$\Delta E$ (1-D box) > $\Delta E$ (2-D box) > $\Delta E$ (3-D box)
(c)$\Delta E$ (1-D box) > $\Delta E$ (2-D box) = $\Delta E$ (3-D box)
(d)$\Delta E$ (1-D box) < $\Delta E$ (2-D box) < $\Delta E$ (3-D box)
