Question 4.
Some elements belonging to second period of periodic table, and their atomic radii are given below. Observe them and write answers.
TS 10th Class Physical Science Model Paper Set 4 with Solutions 1
a) Write the elements in the ascending order of their atomic radii.
b) Which of the 2nd period elements closer to the configuration of inert gas ?
c) Which is the outermost orbit of all these elements ?
d) Which elements atomic size is bigger. Beryllium or Carbon ? Why ?
Answer:
a) The ascending order of atomic sizes is O, N, C, B, Be and Li.
b) Lithium has closest inert gas configuration i.e., 1s2 2sl. Its nearest inert gas is helium.
c) The outermost orbit for all these elements is second orbit.
d) Beryllium has more atomic size than Carbon. Because when we move across a period the atomic number increases. So nuclear attraction of outermost orbit increases. So carbon has lesser size than Beryllium.

Answer:
a)
i) An element whose atomic number 9 is fluorine.
Electronic configuration is 1s22s22p5.
ii) To attain octet configuration one electron is required. So, it possesses high electronegativity. By gaining one electron it becomes FΘ(negative ion).
F + leΘ → FΘ
iii) Then the electronic configuration of F is 1s22s2p6.

b) iv) An element whose atomic number 12 is magnesium. Electronic configuration is 1s22s22p63s2.
v) To attain octet configuration two electrons it has to loose. So, it possesses high electropositivity. By loosing two electrons it becomes Mg2+(Positive ion).
Mg – 2e- → Mg2+

Question 7.
What is the difference between dis-placement and double displacement reactions ? Write equations for these reactions.
(OR)
Describe how sodium hydroxide is obtained from common salt.
Answer:

  1. Displacement reaction: The reaction in which an element displaces another element from a substance is called “displacement reaction.” It is represented as
    AB + C → AC + B
    Ex: Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2
  2. In displacement reaction one element displaces another element from its compound and takes its place therein.
  3. Here in above equation hydrogen has displaced from acids by metals.
  4. Double displacement: The reaction in which the constituent atoms of the reaction interchange by the decomposition of the two reactants, to produce new compounds are called double displacement reactions.
    They are generally represented as follows.

TS 10th Class Physical Science Model Paper Set 4 with Solutions 3
Ex:
1) MgCl2 + 2KOH → Mg(OH)2 + 2KCl
2) HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H2O
3) Pb(NO3)2 + 2KI → PbI2 + 2KNO3
(OR)

  1. When electricity is passed through an aqueous solution of sodium chloride (called brine), it decomposes to form sodium hydroxide.
  2. The process is called chloralkali process because of the products formed chlor for chlorine and alkali for sodium hydroxide
    2NaCl(aq) + 2H2O(l)
    2NaOH(aq) + Cl2(g) + H2(g)
  3. Chlorine gas is liberated at the anode and hydrogen gas at the cathode.
  4. Sodium hydroxide solution is formed near the cathode.
  5. The three products produced in this process are all useful.

3) Object placed at the centre of curvature.
TS 10th Class Physical Science Model Paper Set 4 with Solutions 7
4) Object placed between C and F.
TS 10th Class Physical Science Model Paper Set 4 with Solutions 8
5) Object at the focal point.
TS 10th Class Physical Science Model Paper Set 4 with Solutions 9
6) Object placed between F and P.
TS 10th Class Physical Science Model Paper Set 4 with Solutions 10
(OR)
TS 10th Class Physical Science Model Paper Set 4 with Solutions 11

  1. In an attempt to account for the structure of line spectra, Sommerfeld modified Bohr’s atomic model by adding elliptical orbits.
  2. While retaining the first of Bohr’s circular orbit as such, he added one elliptical orbit to Bohr’s second orbit, two elliptical orbits to Bohr’s third orbit etc.
  3. Nucleus of the atom is one of the principal foci of these elliptical orbits because periodic motion under the influence of a central force will lead to elliptical orbits with the force situated at one of the foci.
    Merit : Bohr – Sommerfeld model successful in accounting for the fine line structure of hydrogen atomic spectra.

Limitations:

  1. This model failed to account for the atomic spectra of atoms of more than one electron.
  2. It did not explain Zeeman and Stark effects.

Question 9.
Derive an expression to measure emf of a battery.
(OR)
Give one application of Faraday’s laws of induction in daily life.
Answer:
Electromotive force (emf) is defined as the work done by the chemical force’ to move unit pos¬itive charge from negative terminal to positive terminal of the battery.

    1. Let this chemical force be Fc.
    2. This chemical force does some work to move a negative charge ‘q’ from positive terminal to negative terminal against the electric force Fe Let this work be ‘W’.
    3. The work done by the chemical force to move 1 coulomb of charge from the terminal to negative terminal is given by \(\frac{w}{q}=\frac{F_c d}{q}\).
      Where ‘d’ is the distance between the terminals.
      If we assume Fc = Fe, then \(\frac{w}{q}=\frac{F_c d}{q}\)
      This \(\frac{w}{q}\) is known as emf (e) of the battery.
      ∴ emf(s) = \(\frac{w}{q}=\frac{F_c d}{q}\)
      This S.I. unit of emf is ‘volt’ and is measured using voltmeter.

(OR)
Now-a-days we can’t imagine the modern world with out electricity.
The generation of electricity utilizes the principle of electromagnetic induction. Transfer of generated power is possible with transformer the most important electrical device in our day to day life.
In bed lamps we are using step down transformer and to increase the voltage we are using step-up transformer.
Transformer used the principle of mutual induction i.e., when current flowing through a coil or magnetic flux linked with a coil changes an induced emf is produced in other coil.
