∴ 1 g of the weight of (frac{1}{9.1 times 10^{-28}}) electrons
= 1.099 × 10²⁷ electrons
∴ No. of electrons weighing 1 g = 1.099 × 10²⁷ electrons.

(2) Mass of one electron = 9.1 × 10^-31 kg .
∴ Mass of 1 mole (6.023 × 10²³) electrons
= 9.1 × 10^-31 × 6.023 × 10²³ kg
= 5.48 × 10^-7 kg
Charge on one electron = 1.602 × 10^-19 coulomb

14.0 g of ¹⁴C contains 1 mole of atoms of C-14 [each atom of C-14 contains 8 neutrons]
∴ 14.0 g of ¹⁴C contains 8 × 6.023 × 10²³ neutrons
7 mg (= 7 × 10^-3g) of C contains =
= 2.409 × 10²¹ neutrons

(b) Total mass of neutrons as in (a) above 7 mg of ¹⁴C contains 2.409 × 10²¹ neutrons

1.2044 × 10²² protons.

(b) No. of protons in 34 × 10^-3 g of NH₃ = 1.2044 × 10²² protons
Mass of 1 proton = 1.675 × 10^-27
Mass of 1.2044 × 10²² protons = 1.675 × 10^-27 × 1.2044 × 10²² kg
= 2.015 × 10^-5 kg
There is no effect of temperature and pressure.

Since the no. of protons = 17 = no. of electrons
∴The atom in chlorine = Cl : ({ }_{17}^{35} mathrm{Cl})

(2) Z = 92, A = 233
No. of protons = 92
∴ The atom is Uranium = U : ({ }_{92}^{233} mathrm{U})

E = hv
Where h = Planck’s constant = 6.6 × 10^-34Js
E = 6.6 × 10^-34 × 3 × 10¹⁵

Now, c = v × λ
3 × 10⁸ = 5 × 10⁹ × λ
λ = = 6.0 × 10^-2 m
Wave number (bar{v}) = (frac { 1 }{ λ }) = = 16.66 m^-1

Question 8.

(1) Energy of the photon in eV = 3.10

(2) Kinetic energy of the emission of photoelectron (K.E.)
= hv – W₀; where W₀ = work function.
= 3.10 eV – 2.13 eV = 0.97 eV

Since K.E. = (frac { 1 }{ 2 }) mν² or ν²= (frac{2 times mathrm{K.E}}{m})
or

Question 10.

Electrons are emitted with zero velocity from the metal surface When it is exposed to radiation of wavelength 6800 A. Calculate threshold frequency,(v₀) and work function (w₀) of the metal.
Solution:
K.E. = hv – hv₀
Since electrons are emitted with zero velocity
∴ K.E. = 0
∴ h = (v – v₀) = 0
v₀ = 0
v₀ = (frac { c }{ λ }) = (frac{3 times 10^{8}}{6800 times 10^{-10}}) = 4.41 × 10¹⁴ s^-1
∴ Threshold frequency (v₀) = 4.41 × 10¹⁴ s^-1
work function,W₀ = hv₀ = 6.6 × 10^-34 × 4.41 × 10¹⁴ J
= 2.91 × 10^-19 J

Solution:
The energy required to ionize the H atom when the electron is in the 5th orbit can be thus calculated: n₁ = 5; n₂ = ∝

∴ The energy required to ionize this H atom = + 8.72 × 10^-20 J
Ionization energy-(i.e., the energy required to remove the electron from n = 1 orbit) of H atom
Here n₁ = 1, n₂ = ∞

Thus, far higher energy (25 times) required to remove an electron from 1st orbit.

Solution:
Maximum number of emission lines

For the first orbit, E₁
For the fifth orbit, E₅

(2) Calculation of the radius of Bohr’s fifth orbit for the Hydrogen atom

For Hydrogen n = 1; Z = 1; putting usual values of π, m, h, e radius (r₀) = 0.529 Å This is known as Bohr’s radius.
For H-atom, the radius of any orbit (r₀)
= n² × r₀ where n = number of the orbit.
= 5² × (0.529) Å = 1.3225 nm

Question 17.

Solution:
For Balmer series n₁ = 2. Hence

Now (bar{v}=frac{1}{lambda})Hence λ will be longest when (bar{v}) is shortest, which,in turn will be shortest if n₂ is shortest i.e., when n₂ = 3.

Question 18.
What is the energy in joules, required to shift the electron of the hydrogen atom from the first Bohr orbit to the fifth Bohr orbit, and what is the wavelength of the light emitted when the electron returns to the ground state? The ground-state electron energy is – 2.18 × 10^-11 ergs.
Solution:
The ground-state electron is the energy of the electron in the first Bohr’s orbit
– 2.18 × 10^-11 ergs [Given]
E₁ = – 2.18 × 10^-18J [1 J = 10⁷ergs]
E_n = Energy in the nth orbit
(frac{-2.18 times 10^{-18}}{n^{2}}) where n = no. of the orbit
E₅ = (frac{-2.18 times 10^{-18}}{5^{2}}) = 8.72 × 10^-20J
Energy has to be absorbed to shift electrons from Bohr’s first orbit to the fifth orbit.
∴ △E = E₁ – E₂ = -2.18 × 10^-18(left[frac{1}{5^{2}}-frac{1}{1^{2}}right])
= 2.18 × 10^-18(left[frac{24}{25}right]) = 2.08 × 10^-18J
= 2.18 × 10^-11 ergs.
△E = (frac { hc }{ λ })

Solution:
For n = 2
E₂ = (frac{-2.18 times 10^{-18}}{2^{2}}) J = -5.45 × 10^-19J
The energy required to remove this electron completely in the case of H atom = + 5.45 × 10_-19 J
[∵ E_∞ = 0; so △E = E_∞ – E₂ = 0 – 5.45 × 10_-19 J = + 5.45 × 10_-19 J]
Now, △E = hv = (frac { hc }{ λ })
∴ λ = (frac { hc }{ △E }) = (frac{6.66 times 3.0 times 10^{8} times 10^{-34}}{5.45 times 10^{-19}})m
= 3.647 × 10^-7 m = 3647 Å

ν = velocity = 2.05 × 10⁷ ms^-1, λ = ?
λ = (frac{h}{m times v}) = (frac{6.635 times 10^{-34}}{9.1 times 10^{-31} times 2.05 times 10^{7}})
= 0.355 × 10^-10m = 3.55 × 10^-11m

Question 21.
The mass of an electron is 9.1 × 10^-31 kg. If it’s K.E. is. 3.0 × 10^-25 J, calculate its wavelength.
Solution:

The velocity of the electron

Now, λ = (frac{h}{m times v}) = (frac{6.625 times 10^{-34}}{9.1 times 10^{-31} times 0.812 times 10^{3}})
= 0.8965 × 10^-6 m

∴ no. of neutrons in it = x + (frac { 31.7 }{ 100 }) x
But Mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons
∴ x + x + (frac { 31.7 }{ 100 }) x = 81
x(left(2+frac{31.7}{100}right)) = 81
231.x = 8100 or x = 35
no. of protons = 35 and no. of neutrons = 81 – 35 = 46
∴ The symbol of the element is (begin{array}{l}81 \35 mathrm{Br}end{array})

Question 43.
An ion with mass number 37 possesses one unit of negative charge. If the ion contains 11.1% more neutrons than the electrons, find the symbol of the ion.
Solution:
The mass number of the ion = 37
i.e. no. of protons + no. of neutrons = 37
This ion carries one unit of negative charge.
Let the no. of protons in it = x; no. of electrons = x + 1
no. of neutrons = 37 – x
According to the equation

No. of protons = 17
No. of electrons = 17 + 1 = 18
No.of neutrons = 37 – 17 = 20
This ion is (frac{37}{17} mathrm{Cl}^{-1}) (chloride ion) and its symbol is (frac{37}{17} mathrm{Cl}^{-1})

Question 44.
An ion with mass number 56 contains 3 units of positive charge and 30.4% more neutrons than electrons. Assign the symbol to this ion.
Solution:
Mass no. of ion = 56 i.e. n + p = 56
Let the no. of protons = x, no. of neutrons = 56 – x
Since it carries 3 units of positive charge
no of electrons = x – 3
∴According to the question
x – 3 + (x – 3) × (frac { 30.4 }{ 100}) = 56 – x
(x – 3) (left[1+frac{30.4}{100}right]) = 56 – x
230.4x – 391.2 = 5600 or x = (frac{59912}{230.4}) = 26
∴ At. no = p = 26
Hence the symbol of the ion will be (26 mathrm{Fe}^{3+})

Solution:
The wavelength of Nitrogen laser radiation = 337.1 nm
No. of photons emitted (n) = 5.6 × 10²⁴
Power of this laser E = nhv = (frac { nhc }{ λ })
(frac{5.6 times 10^{24} times 6.625 times 10^{-34} times 3.0 times 10^{8}}{337.1 times 10^{-9}}) J
= 3.3 × 10⁶ J

Question 47.
Neon gas is generally used in the signboards. If it emits strongly at 616 nm, Calculate

1. the frequency of emission,
2. distance traveled by this radiation in 30 s
3. the energy of quantum and
4. a number of quanta present if it produces 2 J of energy.

Solution:
(1) Frequency (v) of emission can be calculated as : c = v × λ
where, λ = wavelength = 616 nm = 616 × 10^-9 m,
c = velocity of light = 3.0 × 10⁸ms^-1

(2) Distance traveled in 30 seconds
Distance gravelled in 1 second = 3.0 × 10⁸ m
Distance travelled in 30 seconds = 30 × 3.0 × 10⁸ m = 9 × 10⁹ m

(3) Energy of the photon (quantum)
E = hv = 6.625 × 10^-34 × 4.87 × 10¹⁴J
= 32.26 × 10^-20 J

(4) Number of quanta =
(frac{2}{32.26 times 10^{-20}}) = 6.2 × 10¹⁸

Question 48.
In astronomical observations, signals observed from the distant stars are generally weak. If the photon detector receives a total of 3.15 × 1010^-18 J from the radiations of 600 nm, calculate the number of photons received by the detector.
Solution:
Energy received by photon detector = 3.15 × 1010^-18J
Wavelength of radiations = 600 nm = 600 × 10⁹ m
Now E = nhv = (frac { nhc }{ λ })
∴ no. of photons received (whole no.)
(frac { Eλ }{ hc }) = (frac{3.15 times 10^{-18} times 600 times 10^{-9}}{6.6 times 10^{-34} times 3 times 10^{8}}) = 10

Question 49.
Lifetimes of the molecules in the excited states are often measured by using a pulsed radiation source of duration nearly in the nanosecond range. If the radiation source has a duration of 2 ns and the number of photons emitted during the pulse source is 2.5 × 10¹⁵, calculate the energy of the source.
Solution:
Duration of the radiation source = 2 ns
Period = 2 × 10^-9 s
Frequency (v) = (frac { 1 }{ period }) = (frac{1}{2 times 10^{-9}}) = s^-1
= 0.5 × 10⁹s¹
No. of photons emitted = 2.5 × 10¹⁵
∴ Energy of the source = nhv
= 2.5 × 10¹³ × 6.626 × 10^-34 × 0.5 × 10⁹ J
= 8.28 × 10^-10 J.

Question 50.

Solution:
To find frequency (v₁); λ₁ = 589 nm = 589 × 10^-9 m [Given]
To find frequency (v₂); λ₂ = 589.6 nm = 589.6 × 10^-9 m [Given]

Energy = hv
E₁ = hv₁ E₂ = hv₂
∴ △E – E₁ – E₂ = h(v₁ – v₂)
= 6.625 × 10^-34 × 0.0053 × 10¹⁴ = 0.035 × 10^-20
= 3.46 × 10^-22 J Or 3.5 × 10^-22 J

Question 51.
The work function for the cesium atom is 1.9 eV. Calculate
(a) the threshold wavelength and
(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.
Solution:
W₀ = work function for caesium = 1.9 eV= 1.9 × 1.602 × 10^-19 J [1 eV= 1.602 × 10^-19J]
W₀ = hv₀, where v₀ = threshold frequency
∴ v₀ = (frac{W_{0}}{h}) = (frac{1.9 times 1.602 times 10^{-19}}{6.625 times 10^{-34}}) s^-1
(b) ∴ threshold frequency = 0.4594 × 10¹⁵ s^-1 = 4.59 × 10¹⁴ s^-1
(a) Threshold wavelength λ₀ = (frac{c}{v_{0}}) = (frac{3 times 10^{8}}{4.59 times 10^{14}}) = 0.6536 × 10^-6m = 654 nm
kinetic energy = hv – W₀ = (frac { hc }{ λ }) – W₀
(frac{6.625 times 10^{-34} times 3.0 times 10^{8}}{500 times 10^{-9}}) – 3.04 × 10^-19
= 3.957 × 10^-19 – 3.04 × 10^-19 = 0.935 × 10^-19 J
K.E = (frac { 1 }{ 2 }) mv²

Question 52.
Following results are observed when sodium metal is irradiated with different wavelengths. Calculate
(a) threshold wavelength and,
(b) Planck’s constant.

Solution:

mass of electron, m = 9.1 × 10^-31 kg
Here λ = 500 × 10^-9 m
^vmax = 2.55 × 10⁵ ms^-1
λ₀ = ?
using equation (frac{h c}{lambda_{0}}) = (frac { 1 }{ 2 })mv² max = (frac { hc }{ λ }),We get
Substituting the given results of the three experiments, we get

Dividing (ii) by (i)

or λ₀ = 2.619λ – 1309.5 + 450
or 1.619λ₀ = 859.5
or λ₀ = 531 nm
Substituting this value of λ₀ in (iii)
(frac{h timesleft(3 times 10^{8}right)}{10^{-9}})(left(frac{1}{400}-frac{1}{531}right)) = (frac { 1 }{ 2 })(9.11 × 10^-31) × (5.20 × 10⁵)²
or on sloving h = 6.66 × 10^-34 Js

Question 53.
The ejection of the photoelectron from the silver medal in the photoelectric effect experiment can be stopped by applying the voltage of 0.35 V when the radiation 256.7 nm is used. Calculate the work function for the silver medal.
Solution:
h = 6.62 × 10^-34 Js
V₀ = 0.35 volt
e = 1.6 × 10^-19C
λ = 256.7 × 10^-9m
w = ? (eV)
Using equation eV₀ = (frac { 1 }{ 2 })(m v_{max }^{2}) We get
(frac { 1 }{ 2 })(m v_{max }^{2}) = 1.6 × 10^-19 × 0.35 J = 0.56 × 10^-19J
= (frac{56 times 10^{-19}}{1.6 times 10^{-19}}) eV = 0.35 eV.
Also according to Einstein’s photo electric equation,
(frac { hc }{ λ }) = w + (frac { 1 }{ 2 })(m v_{max }^{2})
or w = (frac { hc }{ λ }) – (frac { 1 }{ 2 })(m v_{max }^{2})
= (frac{6.62 times 10^{-34} times 3 times 10^{8}}{256.7 times 10^{-9}}) – 0.35 eV
= 4.83 eV – 0.35 eV = 4.48 eV

Question 54.
If the photon of the wavelength 150 pm strikes an atom and one of its inner bound electrons is ejected out with a velocity of 1.5 × 10⁷ ms^-1, calculate the energy with which it is bound to the nucleus.
Solution:
λ = 150 pm = 150 × 10^-12m
v = velocity = 1.5 × 10⁷ ms^-1
∴ Kinetic energy of the ejected electron
= (frac { 1 }{ 2 })mv² = (frac { 1 }{ 2 }) × 9.1 ×10^-31 × (1.5 × 10⁷)²J
= 0.102 × 10^-19J
Energy of the striking photon E
= hv = (frac { λc }{ λ })
(frac{6.625 times 10^{-34} times 3.0 times 10^{8}}{150 times 10^{-12}}) J
= 1.325 × 10^-15 J
∴ The minimum energy required to eject the electron
E₀ = E – K.E. of the ejected electron
= (1.325 × 10^-15 – 0.102 × 10^-15)J
= 1.223 × 10^-15 J = (frac{1.223 times 10^{-15}}{1.602 times 10^{-19}}) eV [∵1J = 1.602 × 10^-19 eV]
= 7.6 × 10³ eV
∴ The energy with which the electron is bound to the nucleus = 7.6 × 10³ eV

Question 55.
Emission transitions in the Paschen series end at orbit n = 3 and start from orbit n and can be represented as v = 3.29 × 10¹⁵ (Hz) [1/3² – 1/n²]
Calculate the value of n if the transition is observed at 1285 nm. Find the region of the spectrum.
Solution:
According to the question
v = 3.29 × 10¹⁵ (Hz) (left[frac{1}{3^{2}}-frac{1}{n^{2}}right])

∴ The electron jumps from n = 5 to n = 3.
Since this is a transition occurring in the paschal series and paschal series lie in the infra-red portion of light.
∴ The region of the spectrum is in infra-red, which can also be calculated from the wavelength λ.

Question 56.
Calculate the wavelength for the emission transition if it starts from the orbit having a radius of 1.3225 nm and ends at 211.6 pm. Name the series to which this transition belongs and the region of the spectrum.
Solution:
Radius of nth orbit of H-like particle = (frac{0.529 n^{2}}{Z}) pm
r₁ = 1.3225 nm = 52.9 n₁²,r₂ = 211.6 pm = 52.9 n₂² as Z = 1
∴ (frac { r₁ }{ r₂ }) = (frac { 1322.5 }{ 211.6 }) = (frac{n_{1}^{2}}{n_{2}^{2}})
or (frac{n_{1}^{2}}{n_{2}^{2}}) = 6.25 or (frac { n₁ }{ n₂ }) = 2.5
∴ If n₂ = 2, n₁ = 5
since this is the transition from n₂ = 5 to n₁ = 2, this transition belongs to the Balmer series
(bar{v}) = 1.097 × 10⁷(left(frac{1^{prime}}{2^{2}}-frac{1}{5^{2}}right)) m^-1
= 1.097 × (frac { 21 }{ 100 }) × 10⁷m^-1
or λ = (frac { 1 }{ bar{v} }) = (frac{100}{1.097 times 21 times 10^{7}}) m
= 434 × 10^-9m = 434 nm
∴ It lies in the visible region.

Question 57.
The dual behavior of matter proposed by de Broglie led to the discovery of an electron microscope often used for the highly magnified images of biological molecules and another type of material. If the velocity of the electron in the microscope is 1.6 × 10⁶ ms^-1 calculate de Broglie wavelength associated with this electron.
Solution:
de-Broglie wavelength is λ
λ = (frac{h}{m times v})
where h = planck’s constant, m = mass of electron,
v = velocity of electron
λ = (frac{6.625 times 10^{-34}}{9.1 times 10^{-31} times 1.6 times 10^{6}}) = 0.455 × 10^-9m = 4.55 pm

Question 58.
Similar to electron diffraction, a neutron diffraction microscope is also used for the determination of the structure of molecules. If the wavelength used here is 800 pm, calculate the characteristic velocity associated with the neutron.
Solution:
λ = 800 pm = 800 × 10^-12 m
Mass of the neutron = 1.675 × 10^-27 kg
λ = (frac { h }{ mv }) or v = (frac { h }{ mλ })
v = (frac{6.626 times 10^{-34}}{1.675 times 10^{-27} times 800 times 10^{-12}}) = 4.94 × 10⁴ ms^-1

Question 59.
If the velocity of the electron in Bohr’s first orbit is 2.19 × 10⁶ ms^-1 calculate the de Broglie wavelength associated with it.
Solution:
Velocity of electron in Bohr’s first orbit v = 2.19 × 1010⁶ ms^-1
h = 6.625 × 10^-34 Js
mass of electron = m = 9.1 × 10^-31 kg
∴ de Broglie wavelength (λ) = (frac{h}{m times v})
= (frac{6.625 times 10^{-34}}{9.1 times 10^{-31} times 2.19 times 10^{6}})m
= 0.332 × 10^-9 m
= 0.332 × 10^-9
= 332 × 10^-12m = 332 pm

Question 60.
The velocity associated with a proton moving in a potential difference of 1000 V is 4.37 × 10⁵ ms^-1If the hockey ball of mass 0.1 kg is moving with this velocity, calculate the wavelength associated with this velocity.
Solution:
Velocity of the hockey ball (v) = 4.37 × 10⁵ ms^-1
Mass of the ball = 0.1 kg
∴ λ (wavelength) = (frac { h }{ m × v })
= (frac{6.625 times 10^{-34}}{0.1 times 4.37 times 10^{5}}) m = 1.51 × 10^-38m

Question 61.
If the position of the electron is measured within an accuracy of ± 0.002 nm; calculate the uncertainty in the momentum of the electron. Suppose the momentum of the electron is h/4π_m × 0.05 nm, is there any problem in defining this value.
Solution:
△x × △p = (frac { h}{ 4π })
0.002 × 10^-9 × △p = (frac{6.625 times 10^{-34} times 7}{4 times 22})
△p = (frac{6.625 times 10^{-34} times 7}{4 times 22 times 0.002 times 10^{-9}})
= 2.63 × 10^-23 kg ms^-1
Actual momentum = (frac{h}{4 pi times 0.05}) nm = (frac{6.625 times 10^{-34}}{4 times 3.14 times 5 times 10^{-11}})
= 1.055 × 10^-24 kg ms^-1
This value cannot be defined as the actual magnitude of the momentum smaller than the uncertainty.
