Ques. 1JEE Main 2025, 7 April (Evening Shift)

The extra stability of half-filled subshell is due to : Identify the correct statements :

  1. B, D and E only
  2. A, B, D and E only
  3. B, C and D only
  4. A, B and D only

Answer

(2) A, B, D and E only

Solution

As per NCERT, half-filled and completely filled subshells are extra stable because of:

(A) Symmetrical distribution of electrons — symmetry leads to stability. Correct.

(D) Larger exchange energy — electrons with parallel spins in degenerate orbitals can exchange positions; the number of exchanges is maximum in half-filled subshells. Correct.

(E) Electrons in the same subshell have equal energy but different spatial distribution, so their shielding of one another is relatively small and they are more strongly attracted by the nucleus. Correct.

(B) Parallel-spin electrons tend to stay apart, so the coulombic repulsion energy is smaller. Correct.

(C) The electrons with the same spin are in degenerate (not non-degenerate) orbitals. Incorrect.

A, B, D and E are correct.

Answer: (2)

  1. The probability density of finding the electron is maximum at the nucleus
  2. The total energy of the electron is maximum when it is at a distance a0 from the nucleus
  3. The electron can be found at a distance 2a0 from the nucleus

  1. 16 and 5
  2. 12 and 5
  3. 12 and 4

Ques. 4JEE Main 2025, 3 April (Morning Shift)

Which of the following postulate of Bohr's model of hydrogen atom is not in agreement with quantum mechanical model of an atom?

  1. The electron in a H atom's stationary state moves in a circle around the nucleus.
  2. An atom can take only certain distinct energies E1, E2, E3, etc. These allowed states of constant energy are called the stationary states of atom.
  3. An atom in a stationary state does not emit electromagnetic radiation as long as it stays in the same state.
  4. When an electron makes a transition from a higher energy stationary state to a lower energy stationary state, then it emits a photon of light.
