29. During the melting of a slab of ice at 273 K at atmospheric pressure:
1) Positive work is done by the ice-water system on the atmosphere
2) Positive work is done on the ice-water system by the atmosphere
3) Internal energy of the ice-water system decreases.
4) Internal energy of ice-water system remains unchanged
Key: 2
Sol: When a slab of ice at 273K (i,e 00 C ) melts in to water, volume of water formed is less
compared to volume of ice , i.e volume decreases hence work done by ice water system is
negative. So work done on the ice-water system is positive by atmosphere

A piston of mass M is hung from a massless spring whose restoring force law goes as
F   kx 3 , where k is the spring constant of appropriate dimension. The piston separates
the vertical chamber into two parts, where the bottom part is filled with ' n ' moles of an
ideal gas. An external work is done on the gas isothermally (at a constant temperature T)
with the help of a heating filament (with negligible volume) mounted in lower part of the
chamber, so that the piston goes up from a height L0 to L1 , the total energy delivered by
the filament is: (Assume spring to be in its natural length before heating)

62. Which of the following postulate of Bohr’s model of hydrogen atom is not in agreement
with quantum mechanical model of an atom?
1) The electron in a H atom’s stationary state moves in a circle around the nucleus.
2) An atom in a stationary state does not emit electromagnetic radiation as long as it stays
in the same state.
3) An atom can take only certain distinct energies E1, E2 , E3 , etc. These allowed states of
constant energy are called the stationary states of atom.
4) When an electron makes a transition from a higher energy stationary state to a lower
energy stationary state, then it emits a photon of light.
Key: 1
Sol: According to the Bhor’s postulate, the electron in H – atoms stationary state moves in a
circle around the nucleus, but according to quantum mechanical model of an atom, it is
impossible to locate the accurate position and velocity of the electron and the existence
of circular orbits at a accurate distance is over ruled.

below

1) Both statement – I and statement – II are false


2) Statement – I is false but Statement – II is true
3) Statement – I is true but statement – II is false

Key: 1
Sol: Because of inter electronic repulsion of non bonding electrons, N – N single bond is
weaker that P – P single bond. But N – N single bond is shorter than P – P single bond. In
case of group – 15 elements, +3 is one of the common oxidation state. Elements in their
common oxidation state does not participate in disproportionation reaction rapidly.

Key: 3
Sol: A) The process of adding an electron to a neutral gaseous atom is generally exothermic
because energy is released when an electron is added. But it’s not always exothermic.
For example adding an electron to a uni-negative ion is endothermic.
B) The process removing an electron from an isolated gaseous atom is always
endothermic as it required energy to overcome the attraction between the electron and the
