Question 71:
easy
If \( E \) is the energy of \( n^{\text{th}} \) orbit of hydrogen atom, the energy of \( n^{\text{th}} \) orbit of \( \text{He}^+ \) ion will be
The energy of an electron in a hydrogen-like atom is given by \( E_n \propto Z^2 \). For hydrogen, \( Z = 1 \), and for helium ion \( \text{He}^+ \), \( Z = 2 \). Therefore, \( E_{\text{He}^+} = Z^2 E = 4E \).
In an experiment on photoelectric emission for incident light of wavelength \( 1.98 \times 10^{-7} \text{ m} \), stopping potential is found to be \( 2.5 \text{ V} \). What is maximum kinetic energy of emitted photoelectron?
The maximum kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons is related to the stopping potential by \( K_{\max} = e V_s \). Given \( V_s = 2.5 \text{ V} \), the maximum kinetic energy is simply \( 2.5 \text{ eV} \).
The wave number of a photon in bracket series of hydrogen atom is \(\frac{9}{400}R\). The electron has undergone transition from the orbit having quantum number
For Brackett series, \(n_1 = 4\). The wave number formula is \(bar{\nu} = R \left( \frac{1}{n_1^2} - \frac{1}{n_2^2} \right)\). Thus, \(frac{9}{400}R = R \left( \frac{1}{16} - \frac{1}{n_2^2} \right) ⇒ \frac{1}{n_2^2} = \frac{1}{16} - \frac{9}{400} = \frac{16}{400} = \frac{1}{25} ⇒ n_2 = 5\).
The speed of photons of radiation having wavelength \(\lambda\), in vacuum is proportional to
In vacuum, the speed of all photons (electromagnetic waves) is constant (\(c = 3 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s}\)), which is independent of their wavelength. Thus, speed is proportional to \(\lambda^0\).
If the kinetic energy of a particle is increased to 16 times, the percentage decrease in de Broglie wavelength of particle is
de Broglie wavelength is \(lambda = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2mK}}\). If \(K' = 16K\), then \(lambda' = \frac{\lambda}{\sqrt{16}} = \frac{\lambda}{4}\). The percentage decrease is \(\frac{\lambda - \lambda/4}{\lambda} \times 100% = 75%\).
Choose the incorrect statement among the following.
Nuclides with the same atomic number \(Z\) but different neutron number \(N\) are called isotopes. Isotones are nuclides with the same number of neutrons.
If the energy of a hydrogen atom in \(n^{text{th}}\) orbit is \(E\), then energy in the \(n^{text{th}}\) orbit of a singly ionized helium atom will be
The energy in the \(n^{text{th}}\) orbit is proportional to \(Z^2\), where \(Z\) is the atomic number. For hydrogen, \(Z=1\) and for helium, \(Z=2\). Therefore, the energy of singly ionized helium is \(2^2 = 4\) times the energy of hydrogen, which is \(4E\).
