1. Based on equation \[E=– 2.178 × 10^{-18}J\left[\frac{Z^{2}}{n^{2}}\right]\] conclusions are written. Which of them is not correct ?
a) Larger the value of n, the larger is the orbit radius.
b) Equation can be used to calculate the change in energy when the electron changes orbit.
c) For n = 1, the electron has a more negative energy than it does for n = 6 which mean that the electron is more loosely bound in the smallest allowed orbit.
d) The negative sign in equation simply means that the energy or electron bound to the nucleus is lower than it would be if the electrons were at the infinite distance from the nucleus
Explanation: Energy of an electron at infinite distance from the nucleus is zero. As an electron approaches the nucleus, the electron attraction increases and hence the energy of electron decreases and thus becomes negative. Thus as the value of n decreases, i.e. lower the orbit is, more negative is the energy of the electron in it

4. The number of d-electrons retained in \[Fe^{2+}\] (At. no. of Fe = 26) ion is
a) 4
b) 5
c) 6
d) 3
Explanation: Fe+2 = 3d6 , 4s0
5. The orbital angular momentum for an electron revolving in an orbit is given by \[\sqrt{l\left(l+1\right)}\frac{h}{2\pi}\] . This momentum for an s-electron
will be given by
a) zero
b) \[\frac{h}{2\pi}\]
c) \[\sqrt{2}.\frac{h}{2\pi}\]
d) \[+\frac{1}{2}.\frac{h}{2\pi}\]
Explanation: For s-electron, l = 0
angular momentum = zero
6. A reduction in atomic size with increase in atomic number is a characteristic of elements of
a) d-block
b) f-block
c) radioactive series
d) high atomic masses
Explanation: f-block elements show a regular decrease in atomic size due to lanthanide/actinide contraction.
7. Which one of the following groupings represents a collection of isoelectronic species ?
(At. nos. : Cs : 55, Br : 35)
a) \[N^{3-},F^{-},Na^{+}\]
b) \[Be,AI^{3+},Cl^{-}\]
c) \[Ca^{2+},Cs^{+},Br\]
d) \[Na^{+},Ca^{2+},Mg^{2+}\]
Explanation: N3–, F– and Na+ contain 10 electrons each.
8. In Bohr series of lines of hydrogen spectrum, the third line from the red end corresponds to which one of the following inter-orbit jumps of the electron for Bohr orbits in an atom of hydrogen
a) \[5\rightarrow 2\]
b) \[4\rightarrow 1\]
c) \[2\rightarrow 5\]
