Valence electrons: The electrons in the outermost orbit of an atom are called valence electrons of that atom Valency: The number of electrons in the outermost orbit is also called valency that an atom Isotopes: The atoms possessing same number of protons but different number of neutrons i.e. same atomic number but different atomic mass are called isotopes. Radioactivity: The property by which some elements of high atomic mass radiates , and rays is called radioactivity. 1. What is indicated by hydrogen and sodium spectrum? The study of hydrogen and sodium spectrum suggests that hydrogen atom contains one electron while sodium atom has more than one electron. 2. Write in brief about the production of cathode rays and its properties. – + High Voltage G A B E P A thick walled electric discharge glass tube containing two metallic electrodes A and B is taken. Vacuum is created in this discharge tube with the help of vacuum pump P. Electrode A acts as cathode and electrode B acts as anode respectively. When they are connected to high voltage, the cathode rays are produced from cathode A. They move towards the anode with speed. Scientist J. J. Thomson and Crookes proved that the cathode rays are really the flow of electrons having negative charge. Properties of Cathode rays: They travel in straight line. As they are the flow of electrons they are negatively charged. They are deviated under the effect of electromagnetic field. They cast shadow of the objects kept in their path. When they strike the wall of the tube or anticathode, they produce X – rays. 3. What are cathode rays? The flow of electrons, produced from cathode of a vacuum discharge tube when its electrodes are connected to high voltage, is called cathode rays. 4. What effect is experienced by cathode rays in electromagnetic field? The cathode rays are deviated in the electromagnetic field. c.g.road : 2646 08 03 :: 98792 12357 :: 61 Gurukul : 2745 70 IX science 2 AJAY PARMAR GROUP TUITION 5. Mention the production of X-rays, its properties and uses. Production of X rays [How X-rays can be produced from flow of electrons?] Scientist Rontgen found that when cathode rays strike the wall of the tube or anticathode, new types of rays were produced from them. He called these rays as X – rays or Roentgen rays. Properties of X – rays [Write properties of X-rays.] They are electromagnetic waves with extremely short wavelength. They travel in a straight line like rays of light. They do not deflect in electromagnetic field. They can penetrate through opaque material like black paper. They can also affect photographic plates placed in opaque material. Uses of X– rays [Write uses of X-rays.] to detect a fracture in the bone, to observe defect in lungs, to diagnose cancer of oesophagus, to diagonise physical disabilities, to find in joints of metal industries, etc 6. What type of rays are obtained from uranium metal? rays, rays and rays are obtained from uranium metal. rays possess positive charge and rays possess negative charge. Any radioactive substance, when kept in a cavity of lead block, emits radioactive rays i.e. rays, rays and rays in all the directions. In the presence of electromagnetic field rays are deflected towards S pole. Hence they must be positively charged. rays are deflected towards N pole. Hence they must be negatively charged. rays rays rays Magnetic field Radioactive substance Lead Vessel 7. How John Dalton’s conclusion that atoms are indivisible proved to be wrong? Some radioactive minerals emit , and rays, which can pass through opaque material like paper. These rays must be emitting from atoms. Thus atom can be split and is not indivisible as thought earlier. 8. Give difference between cathode rays and – rays? Cathode rays are negatively charged while rays are positively charged. Cathode rays are attracted towards anode in an electromagnetic field while rays are attracted towards cathode of the electromagnetic field. X – rays are produced form cathode rays only and not from rays. 9. Why Thomson's atomic model was not accepted? Thomson’s atomic model: An atom is like a spherical ball and the positive electric charge is uniformly spread on its total volume. c.g.road : 2646 08 03 :: 98792 12357 :: 61 Gurukul : 2745 70 IX science 3 AJAY PARMAR GROUP TUITION Protons and the electrons are arranged at definite places. If this would have been true then due to attraction of positive and negative electric charges they would have mixed with each other and become charge less. Also this arrangement could not explain the different chemical properties of different elements. Thus, this model was not accepted. Electron Atom Nucleus 10. Explain Rutherford's experiment in brief and give the results. Rutherford’s experiment: Experiments of Ernest Rutherford Rutherford presented the experiment to show how electrons are arranged in the atom. Rutherford produced alpha () rays from radioactive element polonium (Po). These rays were incident from one side on the foil (0.004 mm thick) of gold. Observations of Rutherford’s experiment: Most of the rays passed straight through the foil. Very few of them did not pass through, but reflected back by different paths. The proportion of alpha rays returning after deviation and the alpha rays passing through in straight way was about 1:1200 i.e. out of 1200 rays incident on gold foil only one ray was deviated. When the thickness of gold foil was doubled (0.008 mm) the number of a rays reflecting after striking the smallest atom foil was also doubled. nucleus Alpha rays Returned rays Atoms in thin strip of gold Highly hollow atom in which electrons is there Conclusions of Rutherford’s experiement: As most of the rays passed through the gold foil and only very few rays returned in a different path after striking the gold foil he concluded that the atom must be hollow. In the middle of the atom there must be very small, heavy and positive electric charge possessing nucleus. Around this nucleus electrons with negligible weight and possessing negative charge must have been arranged. He found out from calculations that atomic nucleus is 105 times smaller than the total area of the atom. 11. What information about atomic nucleus was given by Rutherford from his experiment? From his experiment, Rutherford determined that in the middle of the atom there must be very small, heavy and positive electric charged centre which is called nucleus. He found out that atomic nucleus is 105 times smaller than the total area of the atom. 12. On what basis Rutherford said that atom is hollow? Rutherford observed that: c.g.road : 2646 08 03 :: 98792 12357 :: 61 Gurukul : 2745 70 IX science 4 AJAY PARMAR GROUP TUITION Most of rays passed through the foil but only one out of 1200 rays of them did not pass through and got reflected in different directions. He suggested that an atom is hollow. Also he found out from calculations that atomic nucleus is 105 times smaller than the total area of the atom. Hence, we can say that atom is relatively very hollow. 13. Write a short note about Niels Bohr's atomic model. Niels Bohr’s atomic model According to Niels Bohr electrons move around the nucleus in atomic levels at a definite distance from the nucleus. This atomic level is called energy level or orbit. The energy of the orbit which is nearest to the nucleus is least. The energy of the orbits away from the nucleus gradually increases. According to atomic model of Bohr, the arrangement of the electrons around the atomic nucleus is as follows: (1) The first orbit, nearest to the nucleus, i.e. orbit K, can accommodate two electrons. (2) The second orbit, i.e. orbit L, can accommodate 8 electrons. (3) The third orbit, i.e. orbit M, can accommodate 18 electrons. (4) The fourth orbit, i.e. orbit N, can accommodate 32 electrons. (5) The second, third and fourth orbits have subsidiary orbits which are called orbitals. (6) Generally the electrons are arranged in an order i.e. only after filling the first orbit completely the extra electrons are arranged stepwise. 14. Mention the symbols of first, second and third orbit of an atom and how many electrons can be accommodated in each of them. The symbols of first, second and third orbit of an atom are K, L and M. Orbit K can accommodate maximum 2 electrons. Orbit L can accommodate maximum 8 and orbit M can accommodate maximum 18 electrons. 15. Describe the arrangement of electrons in orbits of first 20 elements of the periodic table. [Give arrangement of electrons of following elements in their orbits: 11Na, 13Al 19K, 16S, 8O.] [Write electronic structure of following atoms on the basis of Bohr’s model: 10Ne, 12Mg, 15P, 17Cl, 20Ca.] Atom Symbol Atomic Number Hydrogen Helium Lithium Beryllium Boron Carbon Nitrogen Oxygen Fluorine Neon Sodium Magnesium Aluminium Silicon Phosphorus Sulphur Chlorine Argon Potassium Calcium H He Li Be B C N O F Ne Na Mg Al SI P S Cl Ar K Ca 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 Number of protons Number of neutrons Number of electrons Arrangement of electrons in orbits K L M N Valency 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 – 2 4 5 6 6 7 8 10 10 12 12 14 14 16 16 18 22 20 20 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 – – 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 – – – – – – – – – – 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 8 8 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – 1 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 3,5 2 1 0 1 2 16. What is meant by valency? What is the relation between valency and electronic structure? Explain it. Electrons of an atom are arranged in different orbits in the increasing order in energy around the nucleus. c.g.road : 2646 08 03 :: 98792 12357 :: 61 Gurukul : 2745 70 IX science AJAY PARMAR 5 GROUP TUITION Electrons in the outermost orbit are responsible for emission of the spectra and the chemical properties of the elements. They are called valence electrons. The number of electrons in the valence orbit is the valency of the atom. Valency = Number of electrons in valence orbit. e.g. Sodium : Atomic number of sodium is 11. Its electronic configuration is 2, 8, 1. It has 1 electron in the outer most orbit. Thus its valency is 1. Calcium: Atomic number of calium is 20. Its electronic configuration is 2, 8, 8, 2. It has 2 electrons in the outer most orbit. Thus its valency is 2. 17. What is called a valence electron? The electrons in the outermost orbit of an atom are called valence electrons of that atom 18. Mention the importance of valence electrons. The electrons in the outermost orbit i.e. the valence electrons are responsible for emission spectra and the chemical properties of the elements. 19. What is called a stationary (stable) orbit? The orbits in which electrons revolve around nucleus without losing energy are called stationery orbit . 20. Give definitions: Atomic number, atomic mass, isotope. Atomic number: The number of protons or electrons in the nucleus of that atom is called atomic number of that atom. Atomic mass: The total number of protons and neutrons present in its nucleus is called atomic mass of that atom. Isotopes: The atoms possessing same number of protons but different number of neutrons i.e. same atomic number but different atomic mass are called isotopes. 21. Write a short note on discovery of neutron. Rutherford suggested that, as hydrogen has 1 proton and the next element helium has two protons, the mass of helium should be almost double of that of hydrogen. But actually the mass of helium atom was found to be about four times the mass of hydrogen atom. So an atom must be consisting of some particles having mass almost equal to that of proton. These particles are mentioned as neutrons (n). Chadwick discovered this fundamental particle of the atom called neutron. [Which scientist and by which discovery invented neutrons?] He found that neutrons are neutral and its mass is almost equal to the mass of proton. Hence the mass of an atom of any element is the sum of number of protons and number of neutrons in the nucleus. It is called atomic mass denoted as A. A = p + n 22. Write a short note on isotopes and radioactivity. Isotopes Atoms of an element having same number of protons and different number of neutrons i.e. the atoms having same atomic number and different atomic masses are called isotopes of each other. The word isotope means iso = same and topos = place. Thus the atoms of the elements whose position in the periodic table is same are isotopes. Suppose the number of protons in the nucleus of two or more atoms of an element is same but the number of neutrons is different; then there will be change in atomic masses of the same element. As the number of protons of isotopes is same their chemical properties are similar. Some examples of isotopes are given below Isotopes of Hydrogen Isotopes of Oxygen Isotopes of Uranium 16 17 18 232 235 238 Protium Deuterium Tritium 8O 8O 8O 92 U 92 U 92 U c.g.road : 2646 08 03 :: 98792 12357 :: 61 Gurukul : 2745 70 IX science 6 AJAY PARMAR 1 1 H 2 1 H or 21 D 1 1 1 GROUP TUITION T or 31 H 1 1 2 3 1 Protons 1 8 8 8 92 92 92 Electrons 1 8 8 8 92 92 92 Neutrons 0 8 9 10 140 143 146 Radioactivity: The property by which some elements of high atomic mass radiate , and rays is called radioactivity. E.g. Uranium U. This is an old concept because element like lead (Pb) possesses high atomic mass even then it is not radioactive. As the atomic mass of an element increases and if number of neutrons also increases, the atom becomes unstable and so they emit radiation to make nucleus stable and hence these elements are called radioactive elements. If the ratio of neutrons to protons exceeds 1.6, the property of radioactivity is acquired. Radioactive isotopes are used in determining age of old trees, age of fossils of man and animals, radiometric dating, medical treatments, industries etc and also in the treatment of diseases like cancer. 23. Give names of isotopes of hydrogen. Mention the number of protons and neutrons in them. The three isotopes of hydrogen are : protium ( 11 H ) , deuterium ( 21 H OR 21 D ) , tritium ( 31T ) or ( 31 H ). Protium has 0 neutrons, deuterium has 1 neutron and tritium has 2 neutrons. 24. Which isotopes are called radioactive? Give examples. The isotopes of some elements having, high atomic masses possess the property of radioactivity and hence they are called radioactive. e.g. Uranium, radium, polonium, etc 25. Give information about properties of isotopes. The radioactive isotopes are unstable and they emit very small particles like alpha () and beta () and neutral gamma () rays. 26. Mention the importance of radioactive isotopes. Radioactive isotopes are used in (1) determining age of old trees, (2) age of fossils of man and animals, (3) radiometric dating, (4) medical treatments like in treatment in cancer, (5) industries etc. 27.
