Q.1. The ionization potential of H-atom is 13.6 V. When it is excited from ground state by monochromatic radiations of 970.6 Å, the number of emission lines will be (according to Bohr's theory)
Ans. 6
⇒ n2 = 4
∴ Number of emission lines
Q.2. An electron passing through a potential difference of 4.9 V collides with a mercury atom and transfers it to the first excited state. What is the wavelength of a photon corresponding to the transition of the mercury atom to its normal state?
Ans. 2525 Å
Q.3. In the nuclear fusion reaction, given that the repulsive potential energy between the two nuclei is 7.7 × 10−14 J, the temperature at which the gases must be heated to initiate the reaction is nearly [Boltzmann's constant k=1.38 × 10−23J/K]
Ans. 109K
Kinetic energy of the molecules of a gas at a temp.
T is 3/2 kT
To initiate the reaction 3/2 =7.7 × 10−14J
⇒ 3/2 × 1.38 × 10-23 T = 7.7 × 10−14J
⇒ T = 3.7 × 109K
Q.4. A nucleus with mass number 220 initially at rest emits an a-particle. If the Q value of the reaction is 5.5 Mel, calculate the kinetic energy of the α-particle
Ans. 5.4 MeV
Q-value of the reaction is 5.5 eV
i.e. k1 + k2= 5.5 MeV … (i)
By conservation of linear momentum
.. (ii)
On solving equation (i) and (ii) we get k2 = 5.4 MeV
Q.5. The half-life of radioactive Radon is 3.8 days. The time at the end of which 1/20th of the Radon sample will remain undecayed is (Given log10 e = 0.4343)
Ans. 16.5
By the formula N = N0e-λt
Given,
Taking log of both sides
⇒ t = 16.5 days
