Q.29The stabilization of a half-filled d – orbital is more pronounced than that of the p-orbital. Why?v
Solution

The exactly half-filled orbitals have greater stability. The reason for their stability are –
* symmetry
* exchange energy.
(1) Symmetry: The half-filled orbitals are more symmetrical than partially filled orbitals and this symmetry leads to greater stability.
(2) Exchange energy: The electrons with the same spin in the different orbitals of the same sub-shell can exchange their position. Each such exchange releases energy and this is known as exchange energy. Greater the number of exchanges, the greater the exchange energy, and hence greater the stability. In d-orbital, 10 exchanges are possible but in p-orbital 6 exchanges are possible. So, d – orbital with 5 unpaired electrons (10 exchanges)n i.e. half-filled is more stable than p – orbital with 3 unpaired electrons (6 exchanges).

Answer:

The exactly half-filled orbitals have greater stability. The reason for their stability are –
* symmetry
* exchange energy.
(1) Symmetry: The half-filled orbitals are more symmetrical than partially filled orbitals and this symmetry leads to greater stability.
(2) Exchange energy: The electrons with the same spin in the different orbitals of the same sub-shell can exchange their position. Each such exchange releases energy and this is known as exchange energy. Greater the number of exchanges, the greater the exchange energy, and hence greater the stability. In d-orbital, 10 exchanges are possible but in p-orbital 6 exchanges are possible. So, d – orbital with 5 unpaired electrons (10 exchanges)n i.e. half-filled is more stable than p – orbital with 3 unpaired electrons (6 exchanges).

Q.33Explain briefly the time-independent Schrodinger wave equation.v
Solution

Erwin Schrodinger expressed the wave nature of electrons in terms of a differential equation. This equation determines the change of wave function in space depending on the field of force in which the electron moves. The time-independent Schrodinger equation can be expressed as
Hψ = Eψ, where H is called Hamiltonian operator, ψ is the wave function and is a function of position coordinates of the particle and is denoted as ψ(x, y, z), E is the energy of the system.
The above Schrodinger wave equation does not contain time as a variable and is referred to as time-independent Schrodinger wave equation. This equation can be solved only for certain values of E, the total energy, i.e., the energy of the system is quantized. The permitted total energy values are called eigenvalues and corresponding wave functions represent the atomic orbitals.

Q.40Describe the Aufbau principle.v
Solution

Aufbau Principle states that “In the ground state of the atoms, the orbitals are filled in the order of their increasing energies”. That is the electrons first occupy the lowest energy orbital available to them. Once the lower energy orbitals are completely filled, then the electrons enter the next higher energy orbitals. The order of filling of various orbitals as per the Aufbau principle is given in the figure. which is in accordance with the (n + l) rule.

Q.41An atom of an element contains 35 electrons and 45 neutrons. Deduce (i) the number of protons (ii) the electronic configuration for the element (iii) All the four quantum numbers for the last electron.v
Solution

(i) Atomic Number of the element, z = No. of protons or No. of electrons. = 35
Mass number of the element, A = No. of protons + No of neutrons = 35 + 45 = 80
Number of Protons = 80 – 45 = 35.

Answer:

(i) Atomic Number of the element, z = No. of protons or No. of electrons. = 35
Mass number of the element, A = No. of protons + No of neutrons = 35 + 45 = 80
Number of Protons = 80 – 45 = 35.

Q.42Show that the circumference of the Bohr orbit for the hydrogen atom is an integral multiple of the de Broglie wavelength associated with the electron revolving around the nucleus.v
Solution

According to the de Broglie concept, the electron that revolves around the nucleus exhibits both particle and wave character. In order for the electron wave to exist in phase, the circumference of the orbit should be an integral multiple of the wavelength of the electron wave, Otherwise, the electron wave is out of phase.
Circumference of the orbit = nλ
2πr = nλ
2πr = \(\frac{n h}{m v}\)
Rearranging,
mvr = \(\frac{n h}{m v}\)
Angular momentum = \(\frac{n h}{2 \pi}\)
The above equation was already predicted by Bohr.
Hence, de Broglie and Bohr’s concepts are in agreement with each other.

Q.43Calculate the energy required for the process. He + (g) → He 2+ (g) + e – The ionization energy for the H atom in its ground state is — 13.6 eV/atom.v
Solution

He + (g) → He 2+ (g) + e and
E n = – 13.6z 2 /n 2
E l = – \(\frac{13.6(2)^{2}}{(1)^{2}}\) = -56.4 eV
E ∞ = \(\frac{-13.6(2)^{2}}{(\infty)^{2}}\) = 0
Required energy for the given process is,
E ∞ – E l = 0 – (-56.4) = 56.4 eV.

Answer:

He + (g) → He 2+ (g) + e and
E n = – 13.6z 2 /n 2
E l = – \(\frac{13.6(2)^{2}}{(1)^{2}}\) = -56.4 eV

Q.44An ion with mass number 37 possesses unit negative charge. It the ion contains 11.1% more neutrons than electrons. Find the symbol of the ion.v
Solution

Let the number of electrons in an ion = x
number of neutrons = n = x + \(\frac{11.1}{100}\) eV = 1.111 x
(As the number of neutrons is 11.1% more than the number of electrons)
In the neutral of the atom, a number of electrons.
e – = x – 1 (as the ion carries -1 charge)
Similarly number of protons = P = x – 1
Number of protons + number of neutrons = mass number = 37
(x – 1) + 1.111 x = 37.
2.111 x = 37 +1
2.111 x = 38
x = \(\frac{38}{2.111}\) = 18.009 = 18
∴ Number of protons = atomic number – 1 = 18-1 = 17
∴ The symbol of the ion = \(_{17}^{37} \mathrm{Cl}\).

Answer:

Let the number of electrons in an ion = x
number of neutrons = n = x + \(\frac{11.1}{100}\) eV = 1.111 x
(As the number of neutrons is 11.1% more than the number of electrons)
In the neutral of the atom, a number of electrons.
e – = x – 1 (as the ion carries -1 charge)
Similarly number of protons = P = x – 1
Number of protons + number of neutrons = mass number = 37
(x – 1) + 1.111 x = 37.
2.111 x = 37 +1
2.111 x = 38
x = \(\frac{38}{2.111}\) = 18.009 = 18
∴ Number of protons = atomic number – 1 = 18-1 = 17
∴ The symbol of the ion = \(_{17}^{37} \mathrm{Cl}\).
