The frequency of a photon is \( 7.5 \times 10^{14} \, \text{Hz} \). What is its energy in joules? (\( h = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \, \text{J s} \))
Energy \( E = h v = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 7.5 \times 10^{14} = 4.9695 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{J} \).
An electron in a hydrogen atom is excited to \( n = 4 \). How many possible emission lines can it produce?
Number of lines = \( \frac{n(n-1)}{2} = \frac{4 \times 3}{2} = 6 \) (4→3, 4→2, 4→1, 3→2, 3→1, 2→1).
Which of the following has the same number of neutrons as an atom with 12 protons and mass number 24?
Neutrons = 24 - 12 = 12. For \( ^{23}_{11}\text{Na} \), neutrons = 23 - 11 = 12.
A metal has a work function of \( 3.2 \, \text{eV} \). What is the kinetic energy of an electron ejected by light of wavelength \( 350 \, \text{nm} \)? (\( h = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \, \text{J s} \), \( c = 3.0 \times 10^8 \, \text{m s}^{-1} \), \( 1 \, \text{eV} = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{J} \))
\( E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} = \frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3.0 \times 10^8}{350 \times 10^{-9}} = 5.6794 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{J} = 3.5496 \, \text{eV} \). \( W_0 = 3.2 \, \text{eV} \). \( KE = 3.5496 - 3.2 = 0.3496 \, \text{eV} = 5.5936 \times 10^{-20} \, \text{J} \).
The energy of an electron in the second orbit of a hydrogen atom is \( -5.45 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{J} \). What is its energy in the fourth orbit?
For hydrogen, \( E_n = \frac{-2.18 \times 10^{-18}}{n^2} \). Given \( E_2 = -5.45 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{J} \) for \( n = 2 \), for \( n = 4 \), \( E_4 = \frac{-2.18 \times 10^{-18}}{4^2} = -1.3625 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{J} \).
The ionization energy of \( \text{Li}^{2+} \) is \( 122.4 \, \text{eV} \). What is the wavelength of light required to excite an electron from \( n = 1 \) to \( n = 3 \) in \( \text{Li}^{2+} \)? (\( h = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \, \text{J s} \), \( c = 3.0 \times 10^8 \, \text{m s}^{-1} \), \( 1 \, \text{eV} = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{J} \))
For \( \text{Li}^{2+} \) (Z = 3), \( E_n = -122.4 / n^2 \). \( E_1 = -122.4 \, \text{eV} \), \( E_3 = -122.4 / 9 = -13.6 \, \text{eV} \). \( \Delta E = -13.6 - (-122.4) = 108.8 \, \text{eV} = 1.741 \times 10^{-17} \, \text{J} \). \( \lambda = \frac{hc}{\Delta E} = \frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3.0 \times 10^8}{1.741 \times 10^{-17}} = 1.142 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{m} = 11.42 \, \text{nm} \).
Which of the following radiations has the highest frequency?
Frequency increases as wavelength decreases. Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength, hence highest frequency.
The ratio of the kinetic energy of an electron in the first orbit of \( \text{H} \) to the second orbit of \( \text{He}^+ \) is: (\( v_1 \) for H = \( 2.19 \times 10^6 \, \text{m s}^{-1} \), \( m_e = 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \, \text{kg} \))
\( KE = \frac{1}{2} m v^2 \). For \( \text{H} \), \( v_1 = 2.19 \times 10^6 \), \( KE_1 = \frac{1}{2} \times 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \times (2.19 \times 10^6)^2 = 2.18 \times 10^{-18} \, \text{J} \). For \( \text{He}^+ \) (Z = 2), \( v_2 = \frac{2 \times 2.19 \times 10^6}{2} = 2.19 \times 10^6 \), \( KE_2 = 2.18 \times 10^{-18} \, \text{J} \). Ratio = 1.
The uncertainty in velocity of a proton is \( 2.0 \times 10^5 \, \text{m s}^{-1} \). What is the minimum uncertainty in its position? (\( h = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \, \text{J s} \), \( m_p = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} \, \text{kg} \))
\( \Delta p = m_p \Delta v = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} \times 2.0 \times 10^5 = 3.34 \times 10^{-22} \, \text{kg m s}^{-1} \). \( \Delta x \geq \frac{h}{4\pi \Delta p} = \frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34}}{4 \times 3.14 \times 3.34 \times 10^{-22}} = 1.58 \times 10^{-13} \, \text{m} \).
The uncertainty in position of an electron is \( 2.0 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{m} \). What is the minimum uncertainty in its momentum? (\( h = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \, \text{J s} \))
\( \Delta x \cdot \Delta p \geq \frac{h}{4\pi} \), \( \Delta p \geq \frac{h}{4\pi \Delta x} = \frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34}}{4 \times 3.14 \times 2.0 \times 10^{-10}} = 2.64 \times 10^{-25} \, \text{kg m s}^{-1} \).
