Structure of Atom

Ans 1. Hydrogen atom. It consists of only one proton.


Ans 2. Wave number = 1/ wavelength   
Wavelength = 5800 A0= 5800 x 10-10 m  
Wave number = 1/5800 x 10-10 m = 1.72 x 106 m-1


Ans 3. n=2 and l= 1


Ans 4. 1p and 3f are not possible.


Ans 5. 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d5 4s1


Ans 6. velocity of light = frequency x wavelength. Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other.


Ans 7. No two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers or an orbital can have maximum two electrons and these must have opposite spin.


Ans 8. There is a very small heavy body present within the atom.


Ans 9. The smallest packet of energy of any radiation is called a quantum whereas that of light is called photon.


Ans 10. (a) 1s (b) 3p (c)4d (d) 4f


Ans 11. (a) 16 electrons  (b) 2 electrons.


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


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


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
