Worked practice questions

The minimum energy required to remove an electron from the ground state of a hydrogen atom is:

  1. $3.4\,\text{eV}$
  2. $13.6\,\text{eV}$
  3. $27.2\,\text{eV}$
  4. $1.51\,\text{eV}$
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. $13.6\,\text{eV}$

Ionisation energy is the energy required to take the electron from $n = 1$ to $n = \infty$. $E_\infty - E_1 = 0 - (-13.6) = 13.6\,\text{eV}$. The value $27.2\,\text{eV}$ is the magnitude of the potential energy in the ground state, not the ionisation energy.

According to VSEPR theory, the shape of a molecule is determined by

  1. the colour of the element
  2. temperature
  3. repulsion between electron pairs around the central atom
  4. the atomic mass
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. repulsion between electron pairs around the central atom

VSEPR: electron pairs (bonding + lone) arrange to minimise repulsion, fixing the molecular geometry.

The hybridisation of carbon in methane (CH₄) is

  1. sp
  2. sp³
  3. sp³d
  4. sp²
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. sp³

Four sigma bonds, tetrahedral → sp³ hybridisation.
