41.
How many electrons in an atom have the following quantum numbers ?
$$n = 4,{m_s} = - \frac{1}{2}$$
A
32
B
18
C
8
D
16
Answer :
16
Total no. of electrons $$ = 2{n^2}$$
if $$n = 4,$$ no. of electrons $$=32$$
Total number of electrons with $${m_s} = \frac{{ - 1}}{2}$$ will be 16.
42.
The correct ground state electronic configuration of chromium atom is :
A
$$\left[ {Ar} \right]3{d^5}4{s^1}$$
B
$$\left[ {Ar} \right]3{d^4}4{s^2}$$
C
$$\left[ {Ar} \right]3{d^6}4{s^0}$$
D
$$\left[ {Ar} \right]4{d^5}4{s^1}$$
Answer :
$$\left[ {Ar} \right]3{d^5}4{s^1}$$
NOTE : Exactly half filled orbitals are more stable than nearly half filled orbitals.
$$Cr\left( {At.\,\,no.\,\,24} \right)$$ has configuration $$\left[ {Ar} \right]3{d^5},4{s^1}.$$
43.
Three elements $$'X,'\, 'Y'$$ and $$'Z'$$ have atomic numbers 18, 19 and 20 respectively. How many electrons are present in the $$M$$ shells of these elements ?
A
8, 9, 10
B
8, 10, 13
C
8, 8, 8
D
8, 9, 12
Answer :
8, 8, 8
44.
Uncertainty in position of a minute particle of mass $$25 g$$ in space is $${10^{ - 5}}\,m.$$ What is the uncertainty in its velocity ( in $$m{s^{ - 1}}$$ ) ?
$$\left( {h = 6.6 \times {{10}^{ - 34}}Js} \right)$$
45.
How many neutrons are there in $$_{38}^{88}Sr?$$
A
38
B
50
C
126
D
88
Answer :
50
In $$_{38}^{88}Sr,$$
Atomic number = No. of protons = No. of electrons = 38
Atomic mass = 88
Number of neutrons = 88 - 38 = 50
46.
What is the maximum number of electrons that can be accomodated in an atom in which the highest principal quantum number value is 4 ?
A
10
B
18
C
36
D
54
Answer :
36
Energy of subshells follow the order $$1{s^2},2{s^2},2{p^6},3{s^2},3{p^6},4{s^2},3{d^{10}},4{p^6},5s,4d,5p,6s.....$$ we can fill them by electrons upto $$4p$$ hence 36 electrons.
47.
If the radius of first orbit of $$H$$ atom is $${a_0},$$ the de-Broglie wavelength of an electron in the third orbit is
48.
In an atom, an electron is moving with a speed of $$600\,m/s$$ with an accuracy of $$0.005\% .$$ Certainity with which the position of the electron can be located is ( $${h = 6.6 \times {{10}^{ - 34}}kg\,{m^2}{s^{ - 1}},}$$ mass of
electron, $${{e_m} = 9.1 \times {{10}^{ - 31}}\,kg}$$ )
50.
Which of the following conclusions regarding the structure of atom is based on Rutherford's $$\alpha $$ - particle scattering experiment ?
A
The positive charge is concentrated in a very small volume of the atom.
B
The positive charge is scattered with the electrons throughout the atom.
C
The volume occupied by the nucleus is half of the volume of atom.
D
Most of the space in the atom is occupied by the neutrons.
Answer :
The positive charge is concentrated in a very small volume of the atom.
As a very few $$\alpha $$ - particles were deflected by sharp angles, it was concluded that the positive charge is concentrated in a very small volume of the atom.
