    Que 12. An element with mass number 81 contains 31.7 % more neutrons as compared to protons. Assign the atomic symbol.
    Ans 12. Mass number = 81, i.e., p + n = 81
    If protons = x, then neutrons = x + 31.7 × x = 1.317 x
                                                            100
    x+1.317x = 81 or 2.317x = 81     x=35
    Thus proton = 35, i.e., atomic no. = 35   Hence symbol is 8135Br

    Que 13. (i) The energy associated with the first orbit in the hydrogen atom is -2.18 × 10-18J/atom. What is the energy associated with the fifth orbit?
    (ii) Calculate the radius of Bohr’s fifth orbit for the hydrogen atom.     
    Ans 13. (i) En = -2.18 × 10-18/ n2           E5 = -2.18 × 10-18/ 52   = -8.72 × 10-20 J
    (ii) For H atom, rn= 0.529 × n2         r5 = 0.529 × 52 = 13.225 A0= 1.3225 nm

    Que 14. Calculate the total number of angular nodes and radial nodes present in 3p orbitals.
    Ans 14. For 3p orbitals, n=3, l= 1
    Number of angular nodes = l= 1
    Number of radial nodes = n-l-1 = 3-1-1= 1

    Que 15. Write the 3 points of difference between orbit and orbital.
    Ans 15.

    Que 16. State Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle. Calculate the uncertainty in the position of an electron if the uncertainty in its velocity is 5.7 × 105 m/s.
    Ans 16. It states that it is impossible to determine simultaneously, the exact position and exact momentum (or velocity) of an electron.  The product of their uncertainties is always equal to or greater than h/4π.   Δx  × (m × Δv) = h/4ᴨ
    Δx = h/4ᴨ × m × Δv
    = 6.6 × 10-34/4 × 3.14 × 9.1 × 10-31 × 5.7 × 105 = 1.0 × 10-10 m
    Que 17.  (i) Calculate the number of electrons that will together weigh one gram.
    (ii) Calculate the mass and charge of one mole of electrons
    Ans 17. (i) Mass of one electron = 9.10939 × 10–31 kg
    Number of electrons that weigh 9.10939 × 10–31 kg = 1
    Number of electrons that will weigh 1 g = (1 × 10–3kg)
    =                1×10-3
    9.10939 × 10–31 kg
    = 0.1098 × 10–3 + 31
    = 0.1098 × 1028
    = 1.098 × 1027
    (ii) Mass of one electron = 9.10939 × 10–31 kg
    Mass of one mole of electron = (6.022 × 1023) × (9.10939 ×10–31 kg)
    = 5.48 × 10–7 kg
    Charge on one electron = 1.6022 × 10–19coulomb
    Charge on one mole of electron = (1.6022 × 10–19C) (6.022 × 1023)
    = 9.65 × 104 C

    E =  h ν
    Where,  h = Planck’s constant = 6.626 × 10–34Js
    ν = frequency of light = 3 × 1015Hz
    Substituting the values in the given expression of E
    E = (6.626 × 10–34) (3 × 1015)
    E = 1.988 × 10–18J
    (ii) Energy (E) of a photon having wavelength (λ)is given by the expression,
    E=hc/ λ
    h = Planck’s constant = 6.626 × 10–34Js
    c = velocity of light in vacuum = 3 × 108m/s Substituting the values in the given expression of E:
    E= 6.626 × 10–34 × 3 × 108
          0.50 × 10-10
    E = 3.976 × 10-15 J
    E = 3.98 × 10-15 J
    Que 19. What is the wavelength of light emitted when the electron in a hydrogen atom undergoes a transition from an energy level with n = 4 to an energy level with n = 2?
    Ans 19.

    (ii) The electronic configuration of the element
    (iii) Identify the element.
    Ans 20.
    (i) For an atom to be neutral, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons.  ∴ Number of protons in the atom of the given element = 29

    (iii) Copper

    Que 21. Give the number of electrons in the species H2+, H2, and O2+. 
    Ans 21. Number of electrons present in hydrogen molecule (H2) = 1 + 1 = 2
    ∴ Number of electrons in H2+ = 2 – 1 = 1
    Number of electrons in H2 = 1 + 1 = 2
    Number of electrons present in oxygen molecule (O2) = 8 + 8 = 16
    ∴ Number of electrons in O2+ = 16 – 1 = 15

    Que 22. State photoelectric effect. The work function for the cesium atom is 1.9 eV. Calculate
    (a) the threshold wavelength
    (b) the threshold frequency of the radiation. If the cesium element is irradiated with a wavelength of 500 nm, Calculate the kinetic energy and the velocity of the ejected photoelectron.
    Ans 22. Photoelectric effect: The phenomenon of ejection of electrons from the surface of the metal when the light of suitable frequency strikes it is called the photoelectric effect. The ejected electrons are called photoelectrons.  It is given that the work function (W0) for cesium atom is 1.9 eV.
    (a)From the expression,  W0 = hc/ λ0, we get:
    λ0 = hc/ W0
