Solution:

QUESTION: 13

Rutherford’s a-scattering experiment led to the conclusion that

A.
mass and energy are inter-related
B.
the mass and the positive charge of an atom are concentrated in the nucleus
C.
neutrons are present in the nucleus
D.

Solution:

QUESTION: 14

Which of the following pairs have identical values of charge/mass?

A.
A proton and a deuterium
B.
A proton and a neutron
C.
A deuterium and an a-particle
D.
An electron and y-rays

Solution:

Deuterium and an alpha particle have identical value of e/m.

QUESTION: 15

Which of the following in figures given below do not represent Bohr's model of an atom correctly ?

A.
(i) and (ii)
B.
(ii) and (iii)
C.
(ii) and (iv)
D.
(i) and (iv)

Solution:

Figures (ii) and (iv) not correctly represent the Bohr's model of an atom.
It is because maximum number of electrons in K (I) shell is 2, not 4, so (ii) is wrong and maximum capacity of L (II) shell is 8 electrons, not 9. So, (iv) is also wrong.

QUESTION: 16

If K, L, M N, shells of an atom are full. The total number of electrons in that atom are:

A.
60
B.
26
C.
42
D.
36

Solution:

As we know, K shell contains 2 electrons ; L she contains 8 electrons, M shell contains 18 electrons and N shell contains 32 electrons; so total becomes
⇒ 60 electrons.

QUESTION: 17

Atomic models have been improved over the years. Arrange the following atomic models in the order of their chronological order.
(i) Rutherford’s atomic model
(ii) Thomson’s atomic model
(iii) Bohr’s atomic model

A.
(i), (ii) and (iii)
B.
(ii), (iii) and (i)
C.
(ii), (i) and (iii)
D.
(iii), (ii) and (i)

Solution:

QUESTION: 18

The electronic configuration of Ca(20) is

A.
2, 8,10
B.
2, 8, 8, 2
C.
2, 8, 2, 8
D.
2, 2, 8, 8

Solution:

The correct option is Option B.

Atomic number of calcium is 20. Number of protons = number of electrons = 20

First shell can accommodate 2 electrons so K=2.

Second shell can accommodate a maximum of 8 electrons so L=8.

Third shell can accommodate a maximum of 18 electrons but if we put the remaining 10 electrons it will violate the law that the outermost electron can accommodate 8 electrons so it will accommodate only 8 electrons.

So, the number of electrons in M is 8. Now the remaining two will be in N.

So the configuration is 2,8,8,2

QUESTION: 19

In Rutherford experiment, most of the alpha particles go straight through the foil because

A.
alpha particles are much heavier than electron
B.
most part of the atom is empty.
C.
alpha particles move with high velocity
D.
alpha particles are positively charged

Solution:

The particles of which most passed straight through the gold foil were alpha particles, which are positively charged. The few alpha particles that were deflected back or to one side were being repelled by nuclei, which are also positively charged. Those that passes straight through did so because they didn't encounter any nuclei. The observation that most alpha particles passed straight through the gold foil led Rutherford to conclude that the the positive charge in an atom in concentrated in a very small area, the nucleus
Atoms are mostly empty space. Electrons, which are negatively charged, are distributed throughout this space but take up a very small part of it

QUESTION: 20

Na⁺ has 12 neutrons and 10 electrons. Which of the following statement is correct?
