What is the reason of presence of three unpaired electrons in N-atom?
Answer:
The atomic number of Nitrogen is 7 and its electronic configuration is 1s², 2s², 2p^3-.

Arrangement of electrons in a sub-shell of an atom is given by Hund’s rule which states that pairing of electron in the orbitals of same sub-shell will not take place until all the orbitals are singly filled. Thus, according to the rule, the pairing of electrons in orbitals of 2p does not start in N because out of 5 electrons, 2 electrons go to 2s and 3 electrons are singly occupied in 2p sub-shell. Thus, there are 3 unpaired electrons in Nitrogen.

Radial nodes of 2p orbital = 2 – 1 – 1 = 0,
Number of radial nodes of 3s and 2p orbital is 2, 0.

Question 35.
If (n + l) = 6, then what will be the possible number of the sub-shells?
Answer:
It is given that, the value of n + l = 6,
then n + 1 = 6
6 + 0 = 6
5 + 1 = 6
4 + 2 = 6
All above can be possible as values of ‘n’ are greater than the values of ‘l’. But, if the values of n are less than l, then other combination would be

3 + 3 not possible as value of l = (n – 1 ). Hence total number of sub-shells would be 3.

Question 36.
Write the postulates of Bohr’s Model. What are the demerits of the Bohr’s Model?
Answer:
Bohr’s Atomic
Bohr (1913) gave an atomic model based on the study of Plank’s quantum theory and Radiation which over come, the short comings of Rutherfords atomic model and explains the general characters of structure and spectrum of hydrogen atom. Indeed, following two points were important for development of this model
(a) Dual nature of electro magnetic radiation
(b) Experimental observations of atomic spectrum indicate the electrons are quantized in atom

Neils Bohr (1913) was the first to explain quantitatively the general features of hydrogen atom structure and its spectrum. On the basis of Planck’s quantum theory, Bohr’s gave following assumptions.
1. In hydrogen atom electron revolves around nucleus in closed circular orbit.
2. There are various closed circular orbits around the nucleus that revolves only such orbits in which the angular momentum of electron is
integral multiple of \(\frac{h}{2 \pi}\)
\(m v r=\frac{n h}{2 \pi}\)
3. Each circular orbit possess a certain energy level, so there orbits are also known as energy level. Since in these orbits energy of revolving electron in constant so these are also known as stationary orbits. These orbits are denoted by K L M N or 1, 2,3,4.
4. The energy of orbit does not change with time but when an electron jumps to high or low level then it absorbs or emits the necessary amount of energy. This energy change is not continuous
5. During the transmission between two states absorbed or emitted radiation is given by following expression.

Where E₂ and E₁ are higher and lower energy states. This equation is known as law of Bohr’s frequency.
6. For revolving electron centrifugal force is equal to centripetal force.

Where Z = Atomic number, m = mass of electron
v = Velocity of electron, e- charge of electron
r = distance of electron from nucleus (atomic radius)

Question 37.
Explain Planck’s Quantum theory.
Answer:
Particle Nature of Electromagnetic Radiation (Plank’s Quantum Theory)

German scientist. Max Plank (1900) propounded quantum theory of radiation. The main point of this theory are
1. Radiation energy could not emit or absorb consistently but it could emit or absorb in discrete quantities. These small bundles of energy are called quanta in terms of light these bundles are referred as ‘photon’
2. The energy (E) of each quanta is proportional to its frequency, i.e.,

Where E = Energy
h = Plank’s constant
(6.62 × 10^-34 JS)
c = Speed of light
λ = Wave length
3. The total amount of energy emit or absorb by any particle is multiple or whole number of quatai
i. e., E = n hv
(Where ‘n’ is whole number, n – 1, 2, 3….. )

Question 38.
What is Rutherford’s Atomic Model? What are the reasons of failure?
Answer:
Rutherford’s Nuclear Model of Atom
Rutherford’s nuclear model of atom is given as follow

1. Atom is very small, spherical and electrically neutral particle containing maximum, empty part.
2. In an atom, the entire mass and positive charge is concentrated in a very small region at the centre, known as nucleus.
3. The nucleus of atom is positive because all positive charge of atom i.e, all protons are situated in nucleus.
4. Atom is electrically neutral. Hence number of proton present in atom in equal to the number of electron present in atom.
5. The circular path in which electron move around the nucleus is called orbit
6. The positively charged nucleus imposes attraction force on electron but it does not fall into nucleus because the centrifugal force produced by rotation of electron balance the attraction force of nucleus. Size of nucleus is very small as compared to size of atom. Nucleus is about 10^-15 th part of atom and its radius is proportion to cubic root of nucleons (proton + neutron) present in atom
   

Limitations of Rutherford’s Model
The coulomb force between nucleus and electron is equal to gravitalional force in mathmatical form.

where q₁ and q₂ are charges
r is distance between q₁ and q₂
K is proportionality constant
The Rutherford model of atom resembles the solar system in which planets rotate around sun. But there are some short comings in this model, these are given as-

1. It was not able to explain the stability of atom.
2. It does not explain the spectrum of hydrogen and other atoms.
3. This model could not explain the distribution of electron.
   
4. 

Question 39.
Write short notes on:
(a) Dual nature of Particle de-Broglie Hypothesis
(b) Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle
(c) Quantum number and Orbitals
(d) Shapes and Orbitals
Answer:
(a) Dual Nature of Particle de-Broglie Hypothesis : In 1924, Louis de Broglie suggested that matter exhibit dual behaviour i.e. both particle and wave nature. This means that it has both momentum and wavelength. According to de Broglie, the wavelength associated with a particle of mass ‘m’, moving with a velocity ‘v’ is given by equation:
λ = h/mv where h = Planck’s constant
This equation is applicable to all material objects but it has significance only in case of microscopic particles. According to Planck’s quantum theory.
E = hv or hc/λ
Where h = Plank’s constant, v = frequency of wave According to Einstein equation.
E = mc²
Where, m = mass of photon c = velocity of light, Equating both, we get,
hv = mc² but v = c/λ
hc/λ = mc² or λ = \(=\frac{h}{m c} \text { or } \lambda=\frac{h}{m v}\)
The above equation is de Broglie equation.

(b) Heisenberg Uncertainty principle: This principle was given by Werner Heisenberg in 1927. It states that “it is not possible to measure simultaneously both the position and momentum of microscopic particle” , Mathematically it is given as :

(c) Quantum number and orbitals : Quantum numbers are a set of four numbers with the help of which we can get complete information about all the electrons in an atom, i.e. location, energy, the type of orbital occupied, shape and orientation of that orbital. There are 4 quantum numbers:

(d) Shapes and Orbitals
An orbital is a mathematical function that describes the wavelike behavior of an electron, electron pair, or nucleons. An orbital may also be called an atomic orbital or electron orbital. There are four orbital s, p, d and f. s orbitals : An s orbital is spherically symmetric around the nucleus of the atom, like a hollow ball made of rather fluffy material with the nucleus at its centre.

λ = wavelength of yellow light = 580 nm = 580 × 10^-9 m (Given)
Substituting the values, we get.
v = 3 × 10⁸ m/s/580 × 10^-9 m
= 5.17 × 10¹⁴s^-1
Now, wave number of yellow light is given as,
\(\overline{v}=\frac{1}{\lambda}\)
= 1/580 × 10^-9 m
= 1.72 × 10^-6 m^-1

Question 41.

Where, h = Planck’s constant = 6.626 × 10^-34 Js
v = frequency of light = 3 × 10¹⁵ Hz (Given) Substituting the values we get,
E = (6.626 × 10^-34) × (3 × 10¹⁵)
E = 1.988 × 10^-18 J

(ii) Energy (E) of a photon having wavelength (λ) is given by the expression,
Where, E = \(\frac{h c}{\lambda}\)
h = Planck’s constant = 6.626 × 10^-34 Js
c = velocity of light in vacuum = 3 × 10⁸ m/sec
X = wavelength = 0.50 A or 0.50 × 10^-10 m
Substituting values in expression we get,
= 6.626 × 10^-34 × 3 × 10⁸/ 0.50 × 10^-10
= 3.98 × 10^-15 J

Question 42.
The work function of the metal is 2.13 eV. A photon having wavelength of 4 × 10^-7m strikes the metal then calculate kinetic energy of emission of energy of photon and velocity of photoelectron.
Answer:
(i) Energy (E) of a photon = hv
= hc/λ
Where, h = Planck’s constant = 6.626 × 10^-34 J sec
c = velocity of light in vacuum = 3 × 10⁸ m/s
λ = wave length of photon = 4 × 10^-7 m
Substituting the values, we get,
E = (6.626 × 10³⁴ )(3 × 10⁸)/(4 × 10^-7)
= 4.965 × 10^-19 J
Hence, the energy of the photon is 4.97 × 10^-19 J.

(ii) Kinetic energy of the emission = hv – hv_o
= (E – W)
= (4.97 × 10^-19 /1.6020 × 10^-19) eV – 2.13 eV
= (3.1020 – 2.13)eV
= 0.97 eV
Hence, the kinetic energy of emission is 0.97 eV.

(iii) The velocity of a photoelectron (v) can be calculated by the expression,

where (hv – hv_o) is kinetic energy of emission in Joules and ‘m’ is the mass of the photoelectron.
Substituting the values in the given expression of v :

Hence, the velocity of the photoelectron is 5.84 × 10⁵ ms^-1

λ = 0.57 × 10^-6 m
Substituting the values, we get,
E = (6.626 × 10^-34) (3 × 10⁸)/ 0.57 × 10^-6
= 34.87 × 10^-20 J
Rate of emission of photon per second = 25/ 34.87 × 10^-20 = 7.169 × 10^-19 photon per second

Question 44.
When radiation of 6800 A wavelength strikes in metal surface, the electron with zero velocity emitted. Calculate the threshold frequency and work function (W_o) of the metal
Answer:
Threshold wavelength of radiation
(λ_o) = 6800 × 10^-10 m Or 6.8 × 10^-7
Threshold frequency of the metal (v_o) = c/λ_o
= (3 × 10⁸)/(6.8 × 10^-7)
v_o = 441 × 10¹⁴ s^-1
Now,
work function (W_o) of the metal = hv_o
= (6.626 × 10^-34 JS)(441 × 10¹⁴S^-1)
= 2.922 × 10^-19 J

Question 45.
If an electron of hydrogen atom jumps from n = 4 to n = 2 energy state, which wavelength of light will be emitted?
Answer:
The transition from n_i = 4 to an energy level with n_f = 2, will give rise to a spectral line of the Balmer series. The energy involved in the transition is given by the relation,

Solving the equation we get,
E = 2.18 × 10^-18 [(1/4²) — (1/2²)]
= 2.18 × 10^-18 [1-4/16)]
= 2.18 × 10¹⁸ [-3/16]
or, E = -(4.0875 × 10^-19 J)
The negative sign indicates that the energy is emitted during the transition. Now, the wavelength of transmission is given by the expression,
λ = hc/E
where c = velocity of light in vaccum = 3 × 10⁸ m/s
h = Planck’s constant = 6.626 × 10^-34 J sec
Substituting the values we get,
λ = (6626 × 10^-34) (3 × 10⁸) / (-40875 × 10^-19)
= 486 × 10⁷m
or, λ = 486 nm

m = mass of particle (9.109 × 10^-31 Kg)
v = velocity of particle (2.05 × 10⁷ ms^-1)
h = Planck’s constant (6.626 × 10^-34)Js
Substituting the values in the expression of A:
X = (6626 × 10^-34 Js) / (9.109 × 10^-31)(2.05 × 10⁷ ms^-1)
= 3.54 × 10^-11 m
Hence, the wavelength of the electron is 3.54 × 10^-11 m.

Given that the electron energy in hydrogen atom
E_n = (-2.18 × 10^-18)/n²J
Energy required for ionization from n = 2 is given by
∆E = E_∞ – E₁
= [0- [(2.18 × 10^-18)/ 4] J
= 0.545 × 10¹⁸ J
∆E = 5.45 × 10^-19 J
Now, λ = he/∆E
= (6.626 × 10^-34) (3 × 10⁸)/ 5.45 × 10^-19
= 3647 × 10^-10 m
= 3647 Å
