5. Which principle/rule limits the maximum no. of electrons in an orbital to two ?
a) Aufbau principle
b) Pauli's exclusion principle
c) Hund's rule of max. multiplicity
d) Heisenberg's uncertainty principle

Answer: b
Explanation: According to Pauli's exclusion principle the maximum number of electrons with opposite spin present in an atomic orbital is two

6. Photoelectric effect is the phenomenon in which
a) photons come out of metal when hit by a beam of electrons
b) photons come out of the nucleus of an atom under the action of an electric field
c) electrons come out of metal with a constant velocity which depends on frequency and intesity of incident light.
d) electrons come out of metal with different velocities not greater than a certain value which depends upon frequency of incident light and not on intensity

Answer: d
Explanation: In photoelectric effect K.E., hence velocity is directly proportional to frequency of the incident light and independent of the intensity of light.
