Question 1. 
What do you mean by quantum number? Give their types and how they are related to each other, explain with suitable example. 
Answer:It is denoted by ‘n’. It determines the main energy level or shell in which electron is present. Value of energy of electron mainly depends on value of ‘n’. The value of ‘n’
varies from 1 to  but not zero. The values of ‘n’ are also represented by K L. M, N, O shells.
n = 1,2,3,4, 5...
Shells = K, L, M, N, O,...
The maximum number of electrons in any shell is equal to 2n2 i.e.
Shells = K, L, M, N, O, P
‘n’ values = 1 2 3 4 5 6

Question 2. 
Define spectra. Explain various types of spectra 
Answer:
Emission spectrum:
When a substance is heated or the energy is provided to it, then atoms and molecules of element absorb energy and reach to a higher energy state and become unstable. For returning to their normal energy state, (more stable) the atoms and molecules emit radiation in various regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.
The spectrum of radiation emitted by a substance that has absorbed energy is called an 'emisssion spectrum' By following phenomenon, we can emit radiation:

  1. Emitted radiation from sun or electric bulb
  2. From electric discharge of gas at low pressure
  3. By heating a substance at high temperature

Emission spectrum is divided into two parts
1. Continuous spectra
2. Line spectra or atomic spectra
1. Continuous spectra : When sunlight or light from electric bulb is analysed by spectroscope, these spectra obtained on photographic plate containing a series of coloured bands. These seven colours are overlapped to each other. Hence it is called continuous spectrum

2. Line or atomic spectra: When atoms of any element are excited then radiation in emitted when this radiation is analysed by spectroscope. These series line found in discontinuous pattern i.e., dark space between two lines or in other words, we can say that there is black line between two coloured lines. This type of spectrum is known as line or atomic spectrum. For example if platinum wire wetted with KCl solution is burned at bunsen burner, then specific violet coloured flame is obtained, such spectra is known as finger print of atom.

Absorption Spectra:
A spectrum of electromagnetic radiation transmitted through a substance, showing dark lines or bands due to absorption at specific wavelength. An absorption is like the photographic negative of an emission spectrum. A continuous of radiation is passed through a sample which absorb radiation of certain wavelength. The missing wavelength which corresponds to the radiation absorbed by matter leave dark space in the bright continuous spectrum.

Question 3. 
Write down the various rules used for filling the electrons in orbitals. 
Answer:
The word 'Aufbau' is of German language which means 'building up.' The building up of orbital means the filling of orbitals with electrons. According to this principle" in the ground state of the atoms, thè orbitals are filled in order of their increasing order of energy". In other words electrons first occupy the lowest energy orbital available then enter into high energy level. The increasing order of energy levels for various orbitals is shown in following figure.
RBSE Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 2 Structure of Atom 5

Question 4. 
Why fully filled and half filled subshells are most stable? Explain 
Answer:
1. Symmetrical distribution of electrons : It is well known that symmetry leads to stability. The completely filled or half filled subshells have symmetrical distribution of electrons in them and therefore are more stable. Electrons in the same subshell 3 d have equal energy but different spatial distribution. Consequently, their, shielding of one another, is relatively small and the electrons are more strongly attracted by the nucleus.

2. Exchange Energy: Whenever two or more electrons with the same spin are present in the degenerate orbital of subshell then stablizing affect arises. "These electrons tends to exchange their position and the energy related due to this exchange is called exchange energy". The number of exchanges that can take, place is maximum when the subshell is either half filled or fully filled. As a result of exchange energy is maximum and so is stability.

Exchange energy is the basis of Hund's rule in such a way electron have parallel spin as far as possible. In other words, the extra stability of half filled and fully filled subshell is due to
(i) relatively small shielding
(ii) smaller Coulombic repulsion energy and
(iii) larger exchange energy.
The number of exchanges that can take place in d4 configuration are as follows:
Total number of exchanges = 3 + 2 + 1 = 6
The number of exchanges that can take place in d5 configuration áre as follows:

Question 5. 
Write short notes on the following 
(a) Black body radiation 
 (b) Explanation of photoelectic effect by quantum theory. 
Answer:
(a) Black Body Radiation : It is explained by Max Planck in 1900. An ideal black body is that which emits and absorbs radiations of all frequencies. The radiation emitted by such body is called black body radiation.
When an iron rod, is heated then colour changes from dull red to red with increment in temperature intensity of colour increase. After sometime, colour becomes white and blue due to high temperature. But these observations do not satisfy the principle of radiation colour because according to this principle, on increasing thermal energy, intensity of that particular colour i.e., red colour should be increased rather than change in colour. It means that at given temperature, the intensity of emitted radiation increases with decreasing of wave length.

(b) Photoelectric Effect: In 1887 , Hertz observed this effect. When radiation with certain minimum frequency strikes the surface of a metal, the electrons are ejected from the surface of the metal. This phenomenon is called photoelectric effect. For example, when light of certain frequency strikes the surface of some metal like potassium, rubidium, caesium etc, electrons are ejected.

Numerical Questions:
 
Question 1. 
Two elements X and Y possess equal atomic weight and their atomic number are 18 and 19 respectively. If X element has 12 neutrons in its nucleus then calculate number of neutrons in Y element? 
Answer:
Since atomic mass of X and Y are similar i.e., they are isobars. 
Atomic mass = No. of proton + No. of neutrons 
or 
Atomic mass - Atomic number + No. of neutrons 
For X, Atomic mass = Atomic number + No. of neutron 
= 18 + 21 = 39 
For Y, Atomic mass = Atomic number + No. of neutrons 
39 = 19+ No. of neutrons

Question 11. 
A bulb emits light of wavelength of 4500 Å. If bulb is of 150 watt and in which 8% energy emits in form of light then calculate the number of photons emitted in one second. 
Answer:
Energy a photon (E) = \(\frac{h c}{\lambda}\)
Here 
h = 6.626 × 10-34 Js 
c = 3 x 108 m/s 
λ = 4500Å = 4500 × 10−10
Now, 
\(E=\frac{h c}{\lambda}\)
or 
\(E=\frac{6 \cdot 626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8}{4500 \times 10^{-10}}\)
= 4.417 × 10-19 J
Energy emitted by bulb = 150 x \(\frac{8}{100} \mathrm{~J}\)
ETotal = n.E = 150 × \(\frac{8}{100} \mathrm{~J}\)
n × 4.417 × 10-19 = \(\frac{150 \times 8}{100}\)
\(n=\frac{15 \times 8}{10 \times 4 \cdot 417 \times 10^{-19}}\)
So number of photon 
n = 27·17 × 1018 

Question 12. 
The vapour density of oxide of nitrogen is 62. Calculate the total number of electrons in its 108 g. 
Answer:
Suppose formula of oxide is N2O x
The molecular mass of N2Ox ⇒ 2 × 14 + 16 x 
Molecular mass by vapour density = 2 × vapour density 
= 2 × 62 
= 124 
Thus, 
28 + 16x = 124 
16x = 124 - 28 
16x = 96 
\(x=\frac{96}{16}=6\)
Therefore formula of nitrogen oxide 
= N2O6 = NO3 
Now, number of electrons in 1 mole of N2O
= 2 × 7+ 6 × 8 = 14 + 48 = 62 
No. of electrons in Avogadro's molecules 
= 62 × 6.02 × 1023 
= 3.73 × 1025

Question 13.
A bulb of 105 watt, emits a coloured light of wavelength of 400 nm. Calculate the number of photons emitted per second? 
Answer:
Electric power of bulb = 105 W = 105 J/s 
Energy of one photon; E = hv 
or 
\(\begin{aligned} E & =\frac{h c}{\lambda} \\ & =\frac{6 \cdot 626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8}{400 \times 10^{-9}} \end{aligned}\)
= 4.969 × 10-19
 Number of emitted photons = 
\(\frac{105 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}}{4 \cdot 96 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{~J}}\)
= 21.13 × 1019 photons/second. 

Question 14. 
If in H-atom for any transition, it produce wavelength of 100 nm, then what will be wavelength of same transition in He+ atom? 
Answer:

For He+ atom 
\(\frac{1}{\lambda_{\mathrm{He}^{+}}}=R_{\mathrm{H}} \cdot Z^2\left[\frac{1}{\left(n_1^2\right)}-\frac{1}{\left(n_2^2\right)}\right]\) ........ (ii)
In equation (1) and (2) 
\(\lambda_{\mathrm{He}^{+}}=\frac{\lambda_{\mathrm{H}}}{Z^2}=\frac{100}{(2)^2}=\frac{100}{4}=25 \mathrm{~nm}\)

Question 15. 
One ion of any element contains 1 electron. For this ion, the difference in wavelength of first Balmer series and first Lyman series is 59.3 nm. Predict the name of this ion. 
Answer:
According to the relation, 
\(\frac{1}{\lambda}=R_{\mathrm{H}}(Z)^2\left[\frac{1}{\left(n_1^2\right)}-\frac{1}{\left(n_2^2\right)}\right]\)
For first line of Balmer series, n1 = 2, n2 = 3 
\(\begin{aligned} & \frac{1}{\lambda}=R_{\mathrm{H}}(Z)^2\left[\frac{1}{(2)^2}-\frac{1}{(3)^2}\right] \\ & \lambda=\frac{36}{5 R_{\mathrm{H}}(Z)^2} \end{aligned}\)
For first line of Lyman series, n1 = 1, n = 2

Question 18. 
Calculate the de-Broglie's wavelength of an electron which has velocity equal to 1% of velocity of light? 
Answer:
According to de-Broglie 
\(\lambda=\frac{h}{m v}\)
here
m = 9.1 x 10-31 kg 
h = 6.626 × 10-34 Js 
Velocity of electron (Av)= 1% of velocity of light 
\(=\frac{3 \times 10^8 \times 1}{100}\)
= 3 × 108 × 0.01 
= 3 × 106 m s-1 
\(=\frac{h}{m v}=\frac{6 \cdot 626 \times 10^{-34}}{9 \cdot 1 \times 10^{-31} \times 3 \times 10^8}\)
= 2.43 × 10-10

Question 19.
