Question 2
\nSuppose you are given a chance to repeat the alpha-particle scattering experiment using a thin sheet of solid hydrogen in place of the gold foil. (Hydrogen is a solid at temperatures below 14 K.) What results do you expect?
\nAnswer:
\nThe nucleus of hydrogen contains only one proton. Its mass is 1.67 x 10-27<\/sup> kg. The mass of an alpha-particle is 6.64 x 10-27<\/sup> kg. When the alpha particles are incident on a thin sheet of solid hydrogen [in place of the gold foil], even in a head-on collision, the alpha-particle will not be scattered back. It is because the scattering particle is more massive than the target particle.<\/p>\n

Question 3.

Question 5.
\nThe ground state energy of hydrogen atom is -13.6 eV. What are the kinetic and potential energies Of the electron in this state?
\nAnswer:
\nThe kinetic energy of the electron in an orbit is numerically equal to its total energy. Therefore, kinetic energy of the electron = 13.6 eV The potential energy of the electron in a orbit is equal to twice, its total energy
\n= -13.6 \u00d72
\n= -27.2 eV.<\/p>\n

Question 6.

\nthe n = 4 level. Determine the wavelength and frequency of photon.
\nAnswer:
\nThe energy of the electron in ground state
\nEe <\/sub>= -13.6 eV

Question 7.
\n(a) Using the Bohr\u2019s model calculate the speed of the electron in a hydrogen atom in the n = 1, 2, and 3 levels,
\n(b) Calculate the orbital period in each of these levels.
\nAnswer:
\n(a) The speed of electron in the nth<\/sup> orbit of a H-atom is given by
\n\"2nd<\/p>\n

From the equation (i), it follows that the velocity of electron in an orbit of a hydrogen atom is inversely proportional to its quantum number (n).
\n\"2nd
\n(b) The orbital period of an electron in the nth <\/sup>orbit of a H-atom is given by
\n\"2nd<\/p>\n

It follows that orbital period of an electron in H-atom is directly proportional to the cube of its quantum number.

Question 8.
\nThe radius of the innermost electron orbit of a hydrogen atom is 5.3 x 10-11<\/sup> What are the radii of the n = 2 and n =3 orbits?

\n\"2nd<\/p>\n

Question 9.
\nA 12.5 eV electron beam is used to bombard gaseous hydrogen at room temperature. What series of wavelengths will be emitted?
\nAnswer:
\nThe first, second and third excited energies for hydrogen atom are
\nE’\u00a01<\/sub> = E2<\/sub> – E1<\/sub> = -3.4 – [-13.6] = 10.2 eV,
\nE’2<\/sub>\u00a0= E3<\/sub> – E1<\/sub>= -1.51 – [-13.6] = 12.09 eV,
\nand E’3<\/sub> = E4<\/sub> – E1<\/sub> = -0.85 – [-13.6] = 12.75 eV
\nIt follows that when a 12.5 eV electron beam is used to bombard gaseous hydrogen at room temperature, the H – atoms at the most will be raised to n = 3 level. The H – atoms may come to ground state directly or via n = 2 level. Therefore, the wavelengths emitted will lie in Balmer series [for de-excitation from n = 3 level to n = 2 and 1 level] and Lyman series [for de\u00adexcitation from n = 2 level to n = 1 level].<\/p>\n

Question 11.
\nAnswer the following questions, which help you understand the difference between Thomson\u2019s model and Rutherford\u2019s model better.<\/p>\n

(a) Is the average angle of deflection of \u03b1-particles by a thin gold foil predicted by Thomson\u2019s model much less, about the same, or much greater than that predicted by Rutherford\u2019s model?<\/p>\n

(b) Is the probability of backward scattering (i.e., scattering of \u03b1-particles at angles greater than 90\u00b0) predicted by Thomson\u2019s model much less, about the same, or much greater than that predicted by Rutherford\u2019s model?<\/p>\n

(c) Keeping other factors fixed, it is found experimentally that for small thickness t, the number of \u03b1-particles scattered at moderate angles is proportional to t. What clue does this linear dependence on t provide?<\/p>\n

(d) In which model is it completely wrong to ignore multiple scattering for the calculation of average angle of scattering of a -particles by a thin foil?<\/p>\n

Answer:
\n(a) Thomson\u2019s atom model cannot explain the scattering of \u03b1 -particles through large angles and particularly through 180\u00b0. It is because, the light particles like electrons cannot deflect the massive a -particles through 180\u00b0.<\/p>\n

(b) Thomson\u2019s model predicts the backward scattering of a -particles much less than that predicted by Rutherford\u2019s model. The reason is that in Thomson\u2019s model, positive charge is uniformly distributed over whole of the nucleus instead of being concentrated in a small part.<\/p>\n

(c) The chance of single collision increases linearly with the number of targeted atoms and hence linearly with thickness. That the number of \u03b1 -particles scattered at moderate angles is proportional to t, suggests that the scattering is predominantly due to single collision.<\/p>\n

(d) On the basis of Thomson\u2019s atom model, the scattering angle of a -particles due to single collision will be very small. It is because, mass of atom is distributed all over it. The observed average scattering angle can be explained only by considering multiple scattering. Therefore, it is wrong to ignore multiple scattering in Thomson\u2019 atom model.<\/p>\n

Since the mass of the atom is concentrated in the form of nucleus in Ruther ford\u2019s atom model, most of the scattering comes through a single collision and multiple scattering can be ignored.<\/p>\n

Question 12.
\nThe gravitational attraction between electron and proton in a hydrogen atom is weaker than the Coulomb attraction by a factor of about 10-40<\/sup>. An alternative way of looking at this fact is to estimate the radius of the first Bohr orbit of a hydrogen atom if the electron and proton were bound by gravitational attraction.

\nWhen a hydrogen atom de-excites from level n1<\/sub> to np<\/sub> the frequency of radiation emitted is given by
\n\"2nd

\nHence, when n is large, the frequency of radiation emitted is equal to the classical frequency of revolution of the electron in the orbit.<\/p>\n

Question 14.
\nClassically, an electron can be in any orbit around the nucleus of an atom. Then what determines the typical atomic size? Why is an atom not, say, thousand times bigger than its typical size? The question had greatly puzzled Bohr before he arrived at his famous model of the atom that you have learnt in the text. To simulate what he might well have done before his discovery, let us play as follows with the basic constants of nature and see if we can get a quantity with the dimensions of length that is roughly equal to the known size of an atom (~ 10-10<\/sup>m).<\/p>\n

(a) Construct a quantity with the dimensions of length from the fundamental constants e, me<\/sub>, and c. Determine its numerical value.<\/p>\n

(b) You will find that the length obtained in (a) is many orders of magnitude smaller than the atomic dimensions. Further, it involves c. But energies of atoms are mostly in non-relativistic domain where c is not expected to play any role. This is what may have suggested Bohr to discard c and look for \u2018something else\u2019 to get the right atomic size. Now, the Planck\u2019s constant h had already made its appearance elsewhere. Bohr\u2019s great insight lay in recognising that h, me, and e will yield the right atomic size. Construct a quantity with the dimension of length from h, me<\/sub>, and e and confirm that its numerical value has indeed the correct order of magnitude.
\nAnswer:
\n(a) The quantity with the dimensions of length constructed from the fundamental constants e, m and c is

(b) The quantity with the dimensions of length constructed from the fundamental constants h, e, and m is the radius of the innermost orbit (n = 1) of the H – atom. It is given by,

\nIt is also called Bohr\u2019s radius

Question 15.
\nThe total energy of an electron in the first excited state of the hydrogen atom is about -3.4 eV.
\n(a) What is the kinetic energy of the electron in this state?
\n(b) What is the potential energy of the electron in this state?
\n(c) Which of the answers above would change if the choice of the zero of potential energy is changed?
\nAnswer:
\nWe know that K.E and P.E of the electron in the nth<\/sup> energy state of hydrogen atom are respectively given by
\n\"2nd
\nThe first excited state corresponds to n = 2 level. Now, total energy of electron in
\nn = 2 state is given to be – 3.4 eV.
\n\"2nd<\/p>\n

(a) Therefore, K.E of the electron in the first excited state (n = 2) of hydrogen atom
\n\"2nd<\/p>\n

(b) E of the electron in the first excited state (n = 2) of the hydrogen atom.

(c) If the zero of potential energy is chosen differently, K.E does not change. The P.E and total energy will change<\/p>\n

Question 16.
\nIf Bohr\u2019s quantisation postulate (angular momentum = nh\/2 \u03c0) is a basic law of nature, it should be equally valid for the case of planetary motion also. Why then do we never speak of quantisation of orbits of planets around the sun?
\nAnswer:
\nThe mass of a planet is very large as compared to that of electron and accordingly, its angular momentum is very large. For \\(\\frac { h }{ 2\\pi } \\) example, in terms of the angular, from the
\nBohr\u2019s quantisation relation,\\(\\frac { nh }{ 2\\pi } \\) it follows that for the orbital motion of the earth, n = 1070<\/sup>. For such a large value of n, the difference in the energies of the successive energy levels are so small as compared to the energies associated with the energy levels that these levels form an energy continuum, i.e the levels appear to be continous.<\/p>\n
