Q1.
Case: The characteristics of an orbital are expressed in terms of three numbers called Principal quantum number (n), azimuthal quantum number (l), magnetic quantum number (Ml). These numbers are obtained from the solutions of the Schrodinger wave equation. Further, to represent the spin (rotation) of the electron about its own axis, a fourth quantum number, called spin quantum number has been introduced. Thus, a set of four quantum numbers which gives us complete information i.e. location, energy, the type of orbital occupied, shape and orientation of that orbital etc. about all the electrons present in an atom is called quantum numbers. Questions: (i) How many orbitals are associated with principal quantum number (n = 4)? [1] (ii) Using s, p, d notations, describe the orbitals with the following quantum numbers: (a) n = 2, l = 0 (b) n = 4, l = 3 [1] (iii) Explain Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity. [2] **OR** What is Aufbau rule? Why is 4s orbital filled before 3d?
[4]
Q2.
Case: In order to explain the characteristic geometrical shape of polyatomic molecules like CH4, NH3, H2O etc. Pauling introduced the concept of hybridisation. According to him the atomic orbitals combine to form new set of equivalent orbitals known as hybrid orbitals. Unlike pure orbitals, the hybrid orbitals are used in bond formation. The phenomenon is known as hybridisation which can be defined as the process of intermixing of atomic orbitals of slightly different energies so as to redistribute their energies, resulting in the formation of new set of orbitals of equivalent energies and shape. For example one 2s and three 2p orbitals of carbon hybridise, there is the formation of four new sp3 orbitals. Questions: (i) Which hybrid orbital are used by carbon atoms (1, 2 and 3) in the following molecule? CH3–CH2–COOH (atoms numbered 1, 2, 3 left to right over CH3, CH2, COOH respectively) [1] (ii) Is there any change in hybridisation of B and N as a result of the following reaction? BF3 + NH3 → F3B.NH3 [1] (iii) In PCl5 molecule, why are the axial bonds longer than equatorial bonds? [2] **OR** Although geometries of NH3 and H2O molecules are distorted tetrahedral, bond angle in water is less than that of ammonia. Discuss.
