Mark the incorrect statement regarding the photoelectric effect.
A
There is no time lag between the striking of light beam and the ejection of electrons from the metal surface.
B
The number of electrons ejected is inversely proportional to the intensity of light.
C
Photoelectric effect is not observed below threshold frequency.
D
The kinetic energy of the electrons increases with increase in frequency of light used.
Answer :
The number of electrons ejected is inversely proportional to the intensity of light.
The number of electrons ejected is directly proportional to the intensity of light.
137.
Which of the following statements is not correct about the characteristics of cathode rays ?
A
They start from the cathode and move towards the anode.
B
They travel in straight line in the absence of an external electrical or magnetic field.
C
Characteristics of cathode rays do not depend upon the material of electrodes in cathode ray tube.
D
Characteristics of cathode rays depend upon the nature of gas present in the cathode ray tube.
Answer :
Characteristics of cathode rays depend upon the nature of gas present in the cathode ray tube.
The characteristics of cathode rays (electrons) do not depend upon the material of electrodes and the nature of the gas present in the cathode ray tube.

The principal quantum number of an atom is related to the
A
size of the orbital
B
spin angular momentum
C
orbital angular momentum
D
orientation of the orbital in space
Answer :
size of the orbital
The principal quantum number $$(n)$$ is related to the size of the orbital ( $$n$$ = 1, 2, 3 . . . . . )

The ionization enthalpy of hydrogen atom is $$1.312 \times {10^6}\,J\,mo{l^{ - 1}}.$$ The energy required to excite the electron in the atom from $$n = 1$$ to $$n = 2$$ is
A
$$8.51 \times {10^5}\,J\,mo{l^{ - 1}}$$
B
$$6.56 \times {10^5}\,J\,mo{l^{ - 1}}$$
C
$$7.56 \times {10^5}\,J\,mo{l^{ - 1}}$$
D
$$9.84 \times {10^5}\,J\,mo{l^{ - 1}}$$
Answer :
$$9.84 \times {10^5}\,J\,mo{l^{ - 1}}$$
$$\left( {\Delta E} \right),$$ The energy required to excite an electron in an atom of hydrogen from $$n = 1$$ to $$n=2$$ is $${\Delta E}$$ (difference in energy $${E_1}$$ and $${E_2}$$
Values of $${E_2}$$ and $${E_1}$$ are,
$$\eqalign{
& {E_1} = - 1.312 \times {10^6}J\,mo{l^{ - 1}} \cr
& {E_2} = \frac{{ - 1.312 \times {{10}^6} \times {{\left( 1 \right)}^2}}}{{{{\left( 2 \right)}^2}}} = - 3.28 \times {10^5}J\,mo{l^{ - 1}} \cr
& \Delta E\,{\text{is}}\,{\text{given}}\,{\text{by}}\,{\text{the}}\,{\text{relation,}} \cr
& \therefore \,\,\Delta E = {E_2} - {E_1} = \left[ { - 3.28 \times {{10}^5}} \right] - \left[ { - 1.312 \times {{10}^6}} \right]\,J\,mo{l^{ - 1}} \cr
& = \left( { - 3.28 \times {{10}^5} + 1.312 \times {{10}^6}} \right)\,J\,mo{l^{ - 1}} \cr
& = 9.84 \times {10^5}\,J\,mo{l^{ - 1}} \cr} $$
Thus the correct answer is (D)

The $$3d$$ - orbitals having electron density in all the three axes is
A
$$3{d_{xy}}$$
B
$$3{d_{{z^2}}}$$
C
$$3{d_{yz}}$$
D
$$3{d_{zx}}$$
Answer :
$$3{d_{{z^2}}}$$
In $${d_{{z^2}}}$$ orbital two lobes are lying along $$z$$ - axis and it contains a ring of negative charge surrounding the nucleus in $$xy$$ - plane.
