  1. $6\times { 10 }^{ 23 }$

  2. $4.2\times { 10 }^{ 24 }$

  3. $3\times { 10 }^{ 23 }$

  4. $4.2\times { 10 }^{ 23 }$


Correct Option: B

  1. 3:8

  2. 2:5

  3. 3:7

  4. 1:1


Correct Option: A

  1. $20$

  2. $10$

  3. $16$

  4. $24$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Electronic configuration of copper is- $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^13d^{10}$

There are $10$ electrons in $3d-$ shell to attain fully filled configuration.

The number of electrons having $n+s=2.5$ in sulphide ion is :-

  1. $3$

  2. $4$

  3. $6$

  4. $8$


Correct Option: B

The approximate atomic weight of electron or positron per mol is:

  1. $5.48\times 10^{-6} g mol^{-1}$

  2. $ 5.48\times 10^{-8} g mol^{-1}$

  3. $5.48\times 10^{-4} g mol^{-1}$

  4. None of these


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Mass of one electron $=9.1\times 10^{-27} g $

So, mass of one mole of electron $=m\times N _o$ $=5.48\times 10^{-4} g mol^{-1}$ as  $N _o = 6.023\times 10^{23}$.

Rest mass of an electron is $9.11\times 10^{-31}$ kg. Molar mass of the electron is:

  1. $1.50\times 10^{-31}kg$ $mol^{-1}$

  2. $9.11\times 10^{-31}kg$ $mol^{-1}$

  3. $5.5\times 10^{-7}kg$ $mol^{-1}$

  4. $6.02\times 10^{23}kg$ $mol^{-1}$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Rest mass of an electron is $9.11\times 10^{-31}kg$.
So, mass of one mole of electron is $9.11\times 10^{-31}\times6.023\times10^{23} = 5.5\times 10^{-7}kg/mole$

State true or false.
Mass of $1$ mole of electrons is $5.48\times 10^{-7}$ kg/mol.

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Rest mass of an electron is $9.11\times 10^{-31}$ kg.
So, mass of one mole of electron is $9.11\times 10^{-31}\times6.023\times10^{23} = 5.5\times 10^{-7}$ kg/mol.

What are nucleons?

  1. the sum of protons and neutrons present in the nucleus.

  2. the number of protons in the nucleus.

  3. the number of neutrons in the nucleus.

  4. the sum of protons, neutrons and electrons present in the nucleus.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

A nucleon is one of either of the two types of subatomic particles (neutrons and protons) which are located in the nucleus of atoms.
Only option A correct .

Find the mass number of sodium having $12$ neutrons.

  1. $22$

  2. $23$

  3. $11$

  4. $12$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The atomic weight is basically a measurement of the total number of particles in an atom's nucleus. Mass number can be found by rounding off an elements atomic mass to the nearest whole number.
Mass Number $=$ (Number of Protons) $+$ (Number of Neutrons)
$= 11 + 12$
$= 23$

The number of protons is equal to ________ in a neutral atom.

  1. atomic weight

  2. atomic number

  3. number of electrons

  4. both B and C


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom of an element. Atoms are electrically neutral. That means that there must be a balance between the positively charged protons and the negatively charged electrons.


Thus, atoms must have equal numbers of protons and electrons.


Hence, the correct option is $\text{D}$
