Give the reason for higher stability of Tl+1 than Tl+3.

7.

Ans: Tl has 4f14 5d10 6s2 6p1 configuration in its valence shell. Due to poor shielding of 4f and 5d electrons, 6s pair is inert. So Tl+1 is more stable than that of
Tl +3.

Explain the difference in properties of Diamond and Graphite on the basis of

the structure.

Ans: Structure of Diamond: Each C in Diamond undergoes sp3 hybridization.

Central C is bonded to 4C atoms to form tetrahedron. 3-D polymeric tetrahedron network makes Diamond very hard, possesses
high M.P. of 4200K. C - C bond length is 154 Pm. The bond
angle is 109 28'. C. It is bad conductor of electricity as all
the 4 valence e- of C involves in covalent bonds formation.
It glitters due to high refractive index.

Structure of Graphite: Each
C in Graphite undergoes sp2

hybridization. By using 3

sp2 hybridizing orbitals,

Diamond

each C is going to form 3 covalent bonds with 3 other C

atoms in the same plane to form 2-D hexagonal layers.
Weak vander waal's forces between such layers make

Graphite soft and can be used as lubricant. 4th valence

e- of C remains free and makes it a good conductor of

electricity. C - C bond length is 141.5 Pm. The bond angle is 120.

What are quantum numbers? Explain the significance of the four quantum
numbers associated with an electron.

Ans: In order to explain complete address, arrangement of electrons in various sub

shells, shells in an atom, four quantum numbers are introduced. They are
1.

Principal quantum number (n)

It was proposed by Niels - Bohr.

It is denoted by 'n'.

'n' values can be denoted by K, L, M, N, ..... or 1, 2, 3, 4, ......

www.eenadupratibha.net

www.eenadupratibha.net

As 'n' value increases the size, energy of the orbit increases.

It also represents the distance between the electron and nucleus.

In any orbit, if the number of shells = n

No. of orbitals = n2; No. of electrons = 2n2

With the increase of 'n', the energy of electron also increases.

-13.6
En = e.v./atom

It was proposed by somerfeld.
It is denoted by 'l'.

'l' values are ranging from 0 to n - 1.

It represents sub-shells in a shell.

The no. of sub-shells in an orbit are equal to 'n'.

The no. of electrons present in a sub-shell is equal to

2(2l + 1) i.e., 2 electrons in s, 6 in p, 10 in d, 14 in
f sub-shells.

This quantum number describes the shape of the

orbital i.e., if l = 0 (s, Spherical), l = 1 (p, Dumb-bell),

l = 2 (d, Double Dumb-bell), l = 3 (f, four fold Dumb-bell)

It was proposed by Lande to explain Zeeman and Stark effects.

m values are ranging from -l to 0 to +l.

m has (2l + 1) values.

m values are 1, 3, 5, 7 if the l values are 0, 1, 2, 3 respectively.

The energy of all the orbitals present in a sub-shell is same.

This quantum number describes orientation of the orbitals in space.

4.

Spin quantum number (s)

It was proposed by Uhlenbeck and Goudsmit.

It is denoted by 's'.

The value of s = +
2 (If the spin is clockwise)

The value of s = -
2 (If the spin is anti clockwise)

This quantum number describes the direction of spin of the electron (orientation
of spin)

20.

What is a periodic property? How do the following properties change in a

(i) group and (ii) period?

Explain: a) Atomic radius b) Ionization enthalpy c) Electron gain Enthalpy.

18, 32) when they are arranged in increasing order of their atomic numbers (or
electronic configuration)

Atomic radius:

In a group: Due to decrease in effective nuclear charge over the valence electrons, and the addition of new shells, atomic radius increases from
top to bottom in a group.
In a period: Atomic radius decreases from left to right in a period due to
increase in effective nuclear charge over the valence electrons

b)

Ionization Enthalpy:

In a group: Ionization Enthalpy decreases from top to bottom in a group due

to increase in atomic radius, decrease in attraction between the
nucleus and valence electrons, lowest required energy to remove
valence electrons.
In a period: Ionization Enthalphy increases from left to right in a period, due
to decrease in atomic radius, increase in attraction between nucleus and valence electrons, highest required energy to remove
valence electrons

c)

Electron gain Enthalpy:

In a group: Electron gain Enthalpy decreases from top to bottom in a group

due to decrease in attraction between the nucleus and added electron.
In a period: Electron gain Enthalpy gradually increases from left to right in a
period due to increase in attraction between the nucleus and added
electron.
