Worked practice questions

The hydrogen spectral lines that lie in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum belong to the:

  1. Lyman series
  2. Paschen series
  3. Pfund series
  4. Balmer series
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. Balmer series

Balmer series corresponds to transitions terminating in $n_1 = 2$. The first four lines ($n_2 = 3, 4, 5, 6$ to $n_1 = 2$) lie at approximately $656\,\text{nm}$ (H$_\alpha$, red), $486\,\text{nm}$ (H$_\beta$, blue-green), $434\,\text{nm}$ (H$_\gamma$, blue) and $410\,\text{nm}$ (H$_\delta$, violet), all in the visible range.

The bond order of the oxygen molecule O₂ (by molecular orbital theory) is

  1. 2
  2. 1
  3. 2.5
  4. 3
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. 2

MO config gives bond order = (bonding − antibonding)/2 = (8−4)/2 = 2, consistent with the O=O double bond.

As per your syllabus, the IUPAC OFFICIAL name + symbol for Z = 104 is which?

  1. Kurchatovium, Ku
  2. Dubnium, Db
  3. Rutherfordium, Rf
  4. Seaborgium, Sg
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. Rutherfordium, Rf

As per your syllabus, Z=104 is Rutherfordium (Rf). Kurchatovium was the Soviet rival name. 105 = Db, 106 = Sg.
