Q45 / 180 · NEET 2017 · Chemistry

Which one of the following statements is wrong?

  • A
    de-Broglie's wavelength is given by λ=hmv , were m=mass of the particle,v=group velocity of the particle.
  • B
    The uncertainty principle is ΔE×Δt≥h4π.
  • C
    Half-filled and fully-filled orbitals have greater stability due to the greater exchange energy, greater symmetry and more balanced arrangement.
  • Correct answer
    D
    The energy of 2s orbital is less than the energy of 2p orbital in case of hydrogen-like atoms.

Solution

(i) λ=hp=hmv

(ii) Δx.Δp=h4π

Δx×Δp×dtΔt≥h4π     ∴ΔpΔt=f

fΔx    Δt≥h4π, fΔx=ΔE

ΔE.Δt≥h4π

(iii) 3rd statement is true.

(iv) The energy of 2s-orbital and 2p-orbital in case of hydrogen like atoms is equal because they are single electron species.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
