Consider the following statements:
$I$. All isotopes of an element have the same number of neutrons.
$II$. Only one isotope of an element can be stable and non-radioactive.
$III$. All elements have isotopes.
$IV$. All isotopes of carbon can form chemical compounds with oxygen-$16$.
Choose the correct option regarding an isotope.
Statements $III$ and $IV$ are correct
Statements $II, III$ and $IV$ are correct
Statements $I, II$ and $III$ are correct
Statements $I, III$ and $IV$ are correct
Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: Atoms are electrically neutral as they contain equal number of positive and negative charges.
Statement $II$: Atoms of each element are stable and emit their characteristic spectrum.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Choose the correct alternative from the clues given at the end of the each statement:
$(a)$ The size of the atom in Thomson’s model is .......... the atomic size in Rutherford’s model. (much greater than/no different from/much less than.)
$(b)$ In the ground state of .......... electrons are in stable equilibrium, while in .......... electrons always experience a net force. (Thomson’s model/ Rutherford’s model.)
$(c)$ A classical atom based on .......... is doomed to collapse. (Thomson’s model/ Rutherford’s model.)
$(d)$ An atom has a nearly continuous mass distribution in a .......... but has a highly non-uniform mass distribution in .......... (Thomson’s model/ Rutherford’s model.)
$(e)$ The positively charged part of the atom possesses most of the mass in .......... (Rutherford’s model/both the models.)
The gravitational attraction between electron and proton in a hydrogen atom is weaker than the coulomb attraction by a factor of about $10^{-40} .$ An alternative way of looking at this fact is to estimate the radius of the first Bohr orbit of a hydrogen atom if the electron and proton were bound by gravitational attraction.
The Rutherford $\alpha$-particle experiment shows that most of the $\alpha$-particles pass through almost unscattered while some are scattered through large angles. What information does it give about the structure of the atom
The transition from the state $n = 3$ to $n = 1$ in a hydrogen like atom results in ultraviolet radiation. Infrared radiation will be obtained in the transition from
