Explain the question: Compare 1s radial density at 4 points.

Concept: Probability density of 1s orbital (|ψ|2 ∝ e–2Zr/a ) decreases as distance (r) from the
0

nucleus increases.

Solution:
For any s-orbital, the wave function and probability density are spherically symmetrical,
meaning they depend solely on the distance (r) from the nucleus and not on the direction (θ,
ϕ). In the provided diagram for a 1s orbital, points P1 and P3 are positioned on the same inner
dashed circle (at radius rinner), while P2 and P4 are on the outer dashed circle (at radius router).
The probability density |ψ|2 of a 1s orbital starts at its maximum value at the nucleus (r =
0) and decreases monotonically as distance increases.
Since rinner < router, the probability density at the closer points (P1, P3) must be equal to each
other and higher than the density at the farther points (P2, P4).
Therefore, the order is P1 = P3 > P2 = P4.

Final Answer: Option (3)

Explain the question: Identify orbital & radial nodes from graph.

Concept: Radial nodes = n – ℓ – 1; Total peaks in P(r) = n – ℓ.

Solution:
The provided radial probability distribution curve (4πr2R2 vs r) shows three distinct peaks. In
such graphs, the number of peaks corresponds to the value (n – ℓ). Furthermore, a radial node
is a point where the radial probability becomes zero between the origin and infinity. In this
curve, there are exactly 2 such points between the peaks, indicating 2 radial nodes.
Using the formula n – ℓ – 1 = 2, we test the options. For the 3s orbital (n = 3, ℓ = 0), the
number of radial nodes is 3 – 0 – 1 = 2 and the number of peaks is 3 – 0 = 3.
This matches the characteristics shown in the graphical representation perfectly.

Concept: This question is based on limitation of Bohr model.

The splitting of spectral lines in the presence of a magnetic field is known as the Zeeman
effect. This phenomenon occurs because the magnetic field interacts with the magnetic
moments of electrons within atoms, causing their energy levels to split into multiple sublevels.

48) Explain Question:

Identify species unstable due to crowding of large atoms around P.

Concept:
Steric hindrance in phosphorus halides.
 Solution:
Phosphorus isa relatively small central atom.
• Large atoms like lodine (I) and Bromine (Br) create intense steric repulsion when forced into
high coordination number (5 or 6) around phosphorus.
• PI5(g): Unstable because 5 large lodine atoms cannot fit around P; it exits as [PI4]+ I– in solid
state.
• and : Unstable because 6 large halogen atoms (I or Br) cause extreme crowding.
• and are stable due to smaller CI size or lower coordination number.
• PH5 does not exit primarily due to the low electronegativity of hydrogen (energetic), not just
steric repulsion.

53) Question Explanation: Find the distance AB, where A and B are reflection points on the
x-axis for two separate rays of light.

Concept: Reflection of Light and Image Point

Solution: The reflected ray passes through the image of the destination point with respect to
the line of reflection (the x-axis). The line segment A to C′ (image of C) is the path of the first
ray, and B to D′ (image of D) is the path of the second ray. Find A and B as x-intercepts of
these line segments.

Ray 1: P(3,4)→A(xA​,0)→Q(1,2). Image of Q across x-axis is Q′(1,−2).

Line PQ′ contains A. Slope mPQ′​=(4−(−2))/​(3−1)=6/2​=3.
Line PQ′: y−4=3(x−3)⟹3x−y=5.
A is the x-intercept (y=0): 3xA​=5⟹xA​=5/3. A(5/3,0).

Ray 2: R(7,8)→B(xB​,0)→S(6,6). Image of S across x-axis is S′(6,−6).

Line RS′ contains B. Slope mRS′​=(8−(−6))/7−6​=14/1​=14.
Line RS′: y−8=14(x−7)⟹14x−y=90.
B is the x-intercept (y=0): 14xB​=90⟹xB​=45/7. B(45/7,0).
Distance AB: AB=∣xB​−xA​∣ = ∣45/7​−5/3​∣ =∣(45 x 3 ​− 5 x 7)/21​∣ = ∣(135 ​− 35)/21​∣ = 100/21

Question Explanation: Find a chord's equation from its midpoint.

Concept: Equation of a Chord: T=S1​

Solution:

The equation for a chord of a conic that is bisected at a given point (x1​,y1​) is found using the
formula T=S1​.

Given the hyperbola 25x2−16y2=400 and the midpoint (5,3).

We set up the equation T=S1​:

25xx1​−16yy1​=25x12​−16y12​

Substituting the midpoint coordinates (x1​,y1​)=(5,3):

25x(5)−16y(3)=25(5)2−16(3)2

125x−48y=25(25)−16(9)

125x−48y=625−144

125x−48y=481

Final Answer: The correct equation is 125x−48y=481, which corresponds to option 2.
