Calculate the length of the box to get the same energy level


The energy difference between the ground state and first excited state in a hydrogen atom is about 10 eV (eV = electron volt). The diameter of a hydrogen atom is 1°A = 10^-10 m. If we model a hydrogen atom as a1-D box with hard walls, then calculate the length of the box to get the same energy level spacing among the ground state and the first excited state as in hydrogen?
