13.12α- particle decay of Ra88226 emits a helium nucleus. As a result, its mass number reduces to (226-4) 222 and its atomic number reduces to (88-2) 86.

Ra88226  Rn86222 + He24

Q value of emitted α- particle = (Sum of initial mass – Sum of final mass) *c2 , where

c = Speed of light.

It is given that

m ( Ra88226) = 226.02540 u

m ( Rn86222) = 222.01750 u

m ( He24) = 4.002603 u

Q value = [(226.02540) – (222.01750 + 4.002603)] c2

= 5.297 *10-3uc2

But 1 u = 931.5 MeV/ c2

Hence Q = 4.934 MeV

Kinetic energy of the α- particle = MassnumberafterdecayMassnumberbeforedecay *Q = 222226 * 4.934= 4.85 MeV

13.1 Mass of Li36 lithium isotope, m1 = 6.01512 u

Mass of Li37 lithium isotope, m2 = 7.01600 u

Abundance of Li36 , η1 = 7.5%

Abundance of Li37 , η2 = 92.5%

The atomic mass of lithium atom is given as:

m = m1η1+m2η2η1+η2 = 6.01512*7.5+7.01600*92.57.5+92.5 = 6.940934 u

Mass of B510 Boron isotope, m1 = 10.01294 u

Mass of B511 Boron isotope, m2 = 11.00931 u

Let the abundance of B510 be x % and that of B511 be (100-x) %

The atomic mass of Boron atom is given as :

10.8111 = 10.01294x+11.00931(100-x)x+(100-x)

1081.11 = 1100.931 - 0.99637x

x = 19.89 %

Hence the abundance of B510 is 19.89 % and that of B511&nb

Xenon form compounds due to the high electronegativity of fluorine and oxygen, low ionization energy compared to lighter noble gases, and the availability of empty d-orbitals. This breaks the old assumption about noble gases being entirely inert.

Linear motion is one-dimensional motion. It refers to motion in a single direction or in a straight line. In linear motion, the object either moves forward or backward along one axis, i.e. x-axis. For example - a ball dropped from a height vertically downward or a car moving straight on a road. Motion in a Plane refers to an object moving in two dimensions, usually along x and y axes. For example, a football kicked at an angle.

The angle of projection is used to find the trajectory, horizontal range of a projectile, maximum height, and time of flight. For example, the maximum range on level ground is given by the 45-degree angle.

The vectors like velocity, displacement, and acceleration act along different directions in the two-dimensional motion. Resolving the vectors into the vertical and horizontal components allows the application of one-dimensional kinematic equations in each direction separately. It helps solve the problems more accurately and also simplifies the analysis.

Explanation-number of photon emitted per second n= phc?=p?hc=20*5000*10-106.62*10-34*3*108

=5*1019s-1

(ii) E=hc /? = 6.62*10-34*3*1085000*10-10*1.6*10-19=2.48eV  this enegy is greater than 2 so emission is possible

(iii) work function ? = p4?d2*?r2?t = ?o

?t = 4?d2pr2 = 4*2*16*1.6*10-19*2220*(1.5*10-10)-2=28.4s

(iv) N= n?r24?d2*?t

 = 5*1019*(1.5*10-10)2*28.44*(2)2 =2

(v) as the time of emission is 11.04s so photoelectric is not spontaneous.

Explanation- according to law of conservation of momentum

S0 mAv+mb0=mAv1+mBv2

So mA(v-v1)= mBv2

according to law of conservation of kinetic energy

1/2mAv2=1/2mAv12+1/2mBv22

So mA(v2-v12)= mBv22

From above eqn we can say that v+v1=v2 or v=v2-v1

So v1= mA-mBmA+mB v  and v22mAmA+mB v

? initial=h/mAv

? final=h/mAv1= h(mA+mB)ma(mA-mB)v

d? = ? final- ? initial= hmAv{mA+mBmA-mB-1}
