Q5. Choose one of the following in the order of increasing radii:
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

Size of anion is greater than the size of parent atom and size of cation. As the –ve charge of anion increases ionic radii increases due to decrease in the effective nuclear charge and vice versa.

Q7.

Considering a gas in a parallelopiped, in a small time interval , a molecule with x-component of velocity  will hit the wall


Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

Collision by moleculeto the wall of conntainer assumed to be perfectly elastic.

By the principle of conservation of momentum, the momentum imparted to the wall in the collision = 2mvx 

So the magnitude of the force on the wall from each collision is 


distance travelled in time 

x=vxΔt

Q10. Photoelectric effect established that light
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

The emission of free electrons from a metal surface when light is shone on it is called the photoemission or the photoelectric effect. This effect led to the conclusion that light is made up of packets or quantum of energy. Einstein already associated the light quantum with momentum. This strongly supported the particle nature of light and these particles were named photons. Thus, the wave-particle duality of light came into picture. Einstein won the Nobel Prize for Physics not for his work on relativity, but for explaining the photoelectric effect.
