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.

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.
