J.J. Thomson proposed his atom model in 1898. 1. Explain Thomson’s model of atom. 2. Why Thomson’s atom model is called plum pudding model or watermelon model? 3. What is the limitation of Thomson’s atom model?

Answer»

1. J.J. Thomson proposed that an atom possess a spherical shape in which the positive charge is uniformly distributed. The electrons are embedded into it in such a manner as to give the most stable electrostatic arrangement. The mass of the atom is assumed to be uniformly distributed over the atom. This model explained the overall neutrality of the atom.

2. Thomson’s model of atom can be visualised as a pudding or watermelon of positive charge with electrons embedded into it like the plums or seeds.

1. Calculate the number of electrons which will together weigh one gram. 2. Calculate the mass and charge of one mole of electrons.

Answer»

1. Mass of one electron = 9.11 × 10-31 kg 

∴ Number of electrons in one gram = \(\frac{10^{-3} kg}{9.11\times 10^{-31}kg}\) = 1.098 x 1027

2. Mass of one electron = 9.11 × 10-31 kg 

∴ Mass of 1 mole of electrons = 9.11 × 10-31kg × 6.022 × 1023  

= 5.486 x 10-7 kg

Charge on one electron = 1.602 × 10-19 C

Answer» Correct Answer - A
After all stopcocks are opened, gases move unit partial pressure becomes same in all bulbs
For `O_(2)` gas
`P_(1) V_(1) = P_(2) V_(2)`
`P_(1) = 300` torr, `P_(2)` ?
`V_(1) = 1` litre, `V_(2) = 2.5` litre
`300 xx 1 = P_(2) xx 2.5`
`P_(2) = 120` torr
For He gas
`P_(1) V_(1) = P_(2)V_(2)`
`P_(1) = 600` torr, `P_(2) =` ?
`V_(1) = 1` litre, `V_(2) = 2.5` litre
`600 xx 1 = P_(2) xx 2.5`
`P_(2) = 240` torr
For `N_(2)` gas
`P_(1)V_(1) = P_(2)V_(2)`
`P_(1) = 400` torr, `P_(2) =` ?
`V_(1) = 0.5` litre, `V_(2) = 2.5` litre
`400 xx (1)/(2) = P_(2) xx (5)/(2)`
`P_(2) = 80` torr
Pressure of system
`= P_(O_(2)) + P_(N_(2)) + P_(He)`
`= 120 + 80 + 240`
`= 440` torr

A crystal is made up of metal ion M2+ and oxide ions O2- Oxide ions are in ccp lattice structure. The cation M2+ occupies half of the tetrahedral voids. If 50% of metal cations were oxidized to M3+ without disturbing the lattice of oxide ions, the total number of vacant tetrahedral voids per unit cell are

Answer»

Number of oxide in per unit cell o-2 = 4

Number of M+2 metal per unit cell = 1/2 x θ = 4

∵ 50% metal M+2  oxidized into M+3 ions it means , 2 metal al M+2 is oxidized into M+3 ions applying electrical Meutraility  ⇒ 2 M+3 = 3 M+2

it means , on oxidation of 50% metal M+2 , or on oxidation of 2 metal of M+2 metal per unit cell.

∴ total number of metal M per unit cell = 3

∴ number of vacant tetra hedral oxide = θ - 3 = 5

A true balance is one whose pans are of equal masses and arms are of equal lengths. When this happens, the net moment of forces about point of suspension is zero and beam remains horizontal without any weight i.e., for the true balance `P_(1)=P_(2)` and `l_(1)=l_(2)` also `P_(1)l_(1)=P_(2)l_(2)` (mass of beam is neglibigle). A shopkeeper uses a false balance to weigh articles. Both arms and pans of this false balance are different, but beam become horizontal without any weight. `(P_(1)neP_(2)` and `l_(1)nel_(2)` but `P_(1)l_(1)=P_(2)l_(2))`. Q. Shopkeeper use a weight W to weigh and article by false balance. in two weighing by using alternating pans let `W_(1)` and `W_(2)` are the weights of the article given to the customer i.e., customer gets `(W_(1)+W_(2))` weight of article. Loss of gain to the shopkeeper is:A. `(W(l_(2)-l_(1))^(2))/(l_(1)l_(2))` gainB. `(W(l_(2)-l_(1))^(2))/(l_(1)l_(2))` lossC. No gain, no lossD. Data insufficient

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Since `P_(1)l_(1)=P_(2)l_(2)` and `P_(2)ltP_(1)impliesl_(2)gtl_(1)`
`Wl_(1)=W_(2)l_(2)impliesW_(2)=(Wl_(1))/(l_(2))` since `(l_(1))/(l_(2))lt1impliesW_(2)ltW`
`implies` there will be gain for shopkeeper
`DeltaW_(2)=W-W_(2)=W((l_(2)-l_(1))/(l_(2)))`
`W_(1)` be the weight of article when article put in `P_(1)`
`W_(1)l_(1)=Wl_(2)impliesW_(1)=(Wl_(2))/(l_(1))` since `(l_(1))/(l_(2))lt`
`impliesW_(1)gtW`
`implies` there will be loss for shopkeeper
`DeltaW_(1)=W_(1)-W=W((l_(2)-l_(1))/(l_(1)))`
Since weight loss is more so net loss
`=W((l_(2)l_(1))/(l_(1)))-W((l_(2)-l_(1))/(l_(2)))=W((l_(2)-l_(1))^(2))/(l_(1)l_(2))`

Choose the correct options(s)A. If mann of pan `P_(2)` is less than mass of pan `P_(1)` and shopkeeper puts weight W of P_(1), and article on the pan `P_(2)` in this weight gain the shopkeeper is W `((l_(2)-l_(1))/(l_(2)))`B. if mass of pan `P_(2)` is less than mass of pan `P_(1)` and shopkeeper puts weight W on `P_(1)` and article on the pan `P_(2)`. In this weight loss to the shopkeeper is `W((l_(2)-l_(1))/(l_(2)))`C. if mass of pan `P_(2)` is less than mass of pan `P_(1)` and shopkeeper puts weight W on `P_(2)`, and article on the pan `P_(1)`. In this weight loss to the shopkeeper is `W((l_(2)-l_(1))/(l_(1)))`D. If mass of pan `P_(2)` is less than mass of pan `P_(1)` and shopkeeper puts weight W on `P_(2)` and article on the pan `P_(1)` in this weight gain the shopkeeper is `W((l_(2)-l_(1))/(l_(1)))`

Answer» Correct Answer - A::C::D
Since `P_(1)l_(1)=P_(2)l_(2)` and `P_(2)ltP_(1)impliesl_(2)gtl_(1)`
`Wl_(1)=W_(2)l_(2)impliesW_(2)=(Wl_(1))/(l_(2))` since `(l_(1))/(l_(2))lt1impliesW_(2)ltW`
`implies` there will be gain for shopkeeper
`DeltaW_(2)=W-W_(2)=W((l_(2)-l_(1))/(l_(2)))`
`W_(1)` be the weight of article when article put in `P_(1)`
`W_(1)l_(1)=Wl_(2)impliesW_(1)=(Wl_(2))/(l_(1))` since `(l_(1))/(l_(2))lt`
`impliesW_(1)gtW`
`implies` there will be loss for shopkeeper
`DeltaW_(1)=W_(1)-W=W((l_(2)-l_(1))/(l_(1)))`
Since weight loss is more so net loss
`=W((l_(2)l_(1))/(l_(1)))-W((l_(2)-l_(1))/(l_(2)))=W((l_(2)-l_(1))^(2))/(l_(1)l_(2))`

A company dissolves 'X' amount of CO2 at 298 K in 1 litre of water to prepare soda water X =____ × 10–3 g. (nearest integer) (Given: partial pressure of CO2 at 298 K= 0.835 bar. Henry's law constant for CO2 at 298 K = 1.67 kbar. Atomic mass of H,C and O is 1, 12 and 6 g mol–1 , respectively)

Answer»

From Henry law

P = KH X\(_{CO_2}\)

0.835 = 1.67 x 103 x 1.67 x 103\(\cfrac{W_{CO_2/44}}{\frac{W_{CO_2}}{44}+\frac{1000}{18}}\) 

\(W_{CO_2}\) = 1.2228g = 1.222.8 x 10-3 g

Or

P = KHX\(_{CO_2}\)

0.835 = 1.67 x 103 x \(\frac{n_{CO_2}}{n_{CO_2}+n_{H_2O}}\)

0.835 = 1.67 x 103 x \(\cfrac{W_{CO_2}/44}{\frac{1000}{18}}\)

W\(_{CO_2}\) = 1.222g = 1222.2 x 10-3 g
