Structure of Atom
Assignment ( 5 marks each )
1. (a) Define photoelectric effect ? Mention its one practical application in daily
life.
(b) Electrons are emitted with zero velocity from a metal surface when it is
exposed to radiation of wavelength 6800 Å. Calculate threshold frequency
(v0) and work function (W0) of the metal.
[Ans. 4.41 × 1014 s−1, 2.91 × 10−19 J]
2. (a) State de Broglie relation. Why it is not meaningful for a moving cricket ball
?
(b) Which out of (i) electron (e), (ii) proton (p) (iii) α particle, has maximum de
Broglie’s wavelength ? [Assume that all are moving with the same velocity.]
(c) The wavelength associated with particle ‘A’ is 5 × 10−8 m. Calculate the
wavelength associated with particle B, if its momentum is half of A.
[Ans. 1 × 10−7 m]
3. (a) What is the significance of the statement ‘‘Product of uncertainty in position
and momentum is always constant.’’ ?
(b) Why is uncertainty principle not applicable to macroscopic and semimicro
particles ?
(c) An electron has a speed of 40 ms-1 accurate upto 99.99%. What is the
uncertainty in locating its position ? (me = 9.11 × 10-31 kg)
[Ans. 1.45 × 10–2 m]
4. (a) State Aufbau principle.
(b) What is the physical significance of lines in the following depiction of atomic
orbital ?
s-orbital p-orbital
(c) Explain the following with suitable reason :
(i) In potassium, the 19th electron enters in 4s subshell instead of 3d
subshell.
(ii) Chromium has configuration 3d 5 4s 1 and not 3d 4 4s 2.
(iii) The three electrons present in 2p subshell of nitrogen (N) remain
unpaired and have the parallel spins.
