SECTION A (Objective type)

1. Read the passage given below and answer the following questions: (1x4=4)
Orbitals are regions or spaces where there is a maximum probability of finding electrons.
Qualitatively, these orbitals can be distinguished by their size, shape, and orientation. An
orbital of small size means there is more chance of finding the electron near the nucleus. Shape
and orientation mean the direction in which the probability of finding the electron is maximum.
Atomic orbitals can be distinguished by quantum numbers. Each orbital is designated by three
quantum numbers n, l, and ml (magnetic quantum number) which define energy, shape, and
orientation but these are not sufficient to explain spectra of multi-electrons atoms. Spin
quantum number (ms) determines the spin of electrons. Spin angular momentum of the electron
has two orientations relative to the chosen axis which are distinguished by spin quantum
numbers ms which can take values +1/2 and –1/2.
The following questions are multiple choice questions. Choose the most appropriate answer:
i. Orbital associated with principal quantum number n=3
(a) 3 (b) 6 (c) 9 (d) 4
ii. Which set of quantum number uniquely defines one of the electrons in an atomic orbital with
n = 2 and l = 0?
(a) n=2, l=0, ml=0, ms=+1
(b) n=2, l=0, ml=1, ms=+1/2
(c) n=2, l=0, ml=0, ms=+1/2

(a) Only s, p, d and f orbital
(b) Only s, p, and f orbital
(c) Only s and p orbital
(d) Only an s orbital
2. Read the passage given below and answer the following questions: (1x4=4)
Modern periodic table arranges the elements in the increasing order of atomic number. It has
18 groups and 7 periods. Atomic numbers are consecutive in a period and increases in the
group in a pattern. Elements are divided into four blocks, s-block, p-block, d-block, and f-
block based on their electronic configuration. 78% of elements are metals, about 20 elements
are non-metals, and few elements like B, Si, Ge, As are metalloids. Metallic character
increases down the group but decreases along the period from left to right. The physical and
chemical properties vary periodically with their atomic numbers. Periodic trends are observed
in atomic size, ionization enthalpies, electron gain enthalpies, electronegativity, and valence.
Oxides of metals are basic, some are amphoteric. Non-metals form acidic oxides, some form
neutral oxides. s-block elements are soft, highly reactive, do not show variable oxidation
states. p-block elements are metals, non-metals as well as metalloids, show variable oxidation
states, exist as solids, liquids, and gases. d-block elements are metals, form coloured ions,
show variable oxidation states, have high melting and boiling points. Lanthanoids and actinoids
are f-block elements, form coloured ions. All actinoids are radioactive.
In these questions a statement of assertion followed by a statement of reason is given. Choose
the correct answer out of the following choices.
a) Assertion and reason both are correct statements and reason is correct explanation for
assertion.
b) Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation for
assertion.
c) Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.
d) Assertion is wrong statement but reason is correct statement.
i. Assertion: Fluorine has greater atomic radius than nitrogen.
Reason: Atomic radius decreases along a period.
ii. Assertion: Smaller the size of an atom greater is the electronegativity.
Reason: Electronegativity refers to the tendency of atom so share electrons with other
atom.
OR
Assertion: Nonmetals have small size as compared to metals belonging to same group
Reason: This is due to increased nuclear charge.
iii. Assertion: Second ionization enthalpy will be higher the first ionization enthalpy.
Reason: Ionization enthalpy is a quantitative measure of the tendency of an element to

lose electron.
iv. Assertion: Electron gain enthalpy can be exothermic or endothermic.
Reason: Electron gain enthalpy provides a measure of the ease with which an atom adds
an electron to form anion.
