9 | 19 | 10 | 9 | 9 | Fluorine |
16 | 32 | 16 | 16 | 16 | Sulphur |
12 | 24 | 12 | 12 | 12 | Magnesium |
1 | 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | Deuterium |
1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | Protium |
VI. Very short answer
1. Name an element which has the same number of electrons in its first and second shell.
Beryllium (2,2)
2. Write the electronic configuration of K+ and Cl–
Electronic configuration of K+ is (2,8,8)
The electronic configuration of Cl– is (2,8,8)
So, they are Iso-electronic
3. For an atom ‘X’, K, L, and M shells are completely filled. How many electrons will be present in it?
Total number of electrons | = K + L +M |
= 2+8+18=28 |
4. Compare the charge and mass of protons and electrons.
Particle | Charge | Mass |
Proton | 1.602 x 10-19C | 1.672 x 10-24g |
Electron | 1.602 x 10-19C | 9.108 x 10-24g |
5. Ca2+ has completely filled the outer shell. Justify your answer.
Ca has electronic configurations 2,8,8,2. After losing 2 c-s it becomes 2,8,2 (completely filled outer shell.
Ca -2e → Ca2+
2,8,8,2 2,8,8 (completely filled)
VII. Short answer
1. State the law of multiple proportions?
When two elements A and B combine together to form more than one compound, then masses of A which separately combines with a fixed mass of B are in a simple ratio.
2. List the uses of isotopes?
- Cobalt-60 isotope is used in the treatment of Cancer.
- Uranium-235 acts as a fuel in nuclear reactors.
3. What is isotone? Give an example.
Atoms of different elements with
- Different atomic numbers
- Different mass numbers.
- Same number of neurtrons.
4. Calculate the number of neutrons, protons, and electrons.
- atomic number 3 and mass number 7
- atomic number 92 and mass number 238
Element | Neutrons | Protons | Electrons |
3X7 | 24 | 3 | 3 |
92X238 | 145 | 92 | 92 |
