Q.28 Pauling introduced the concept of hybridization. According to him the atomic orbitals combine to
forms new set of equivalent orbitals known as hybrid orbitals. Unlike pure orbitals, the hybrid orbitals
are used in bond formation .The phenomenon is known as hybridisation which can be defined as the
process of intermixing of the orbitals of slightly different energies so as to redistribute their energies,
resulting in the formation of new set of orbitals of equivalent energies and shape.

Q.29 Read the passage given below and answer the following questions: As the number of protons
increase within a period (or row) of the periodic table, the first ionization energies of the transition-
metal elements are relatively steady, while that for the main-group elements increases. The
effective nuclear charge mirrors and may explain the periodic trends in the first ionization energies
of the transition-metal and main-group elements. The differing periodic trends in the effective
nuclear charge are due to a greater increase in shielding in the transition metal elements than in the
main-group elements. The difference in shielding is due to the entry of electrons into an inner-shell
orbital for the transition-metal elements, while electrons enter an outer-shell orbital for the main-
group elements.

Q.30 Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
The capacities of shells with a given principal quantum number are fixed by (1) the rules governing
the permitted values of the quantum numbers and (2) the Pauli Exclusion Principle. The permitted
values of the quantum numbers are: Principal quantum number n 1 to ∞ Azimuthal quantum
number l 0 to n–1 (n values) Magnetic quantum number ml – l to + l, (2l +1 values) Spin quantum
number ms – ½ or + ½ (2 values) The Pauli Exclusion Principle states that no two electrons in the
same atom may have the same values of all four quantum numbers. It follows that, for a given value
of n, there are 2n2 different sets of values for the quantum numbers, because l may have the values
 O, 1, . . ., n–1, and for each value of l there are 2l +1 values of ml and for each set of values of l and
m there are just two choices for ms
The following questions are multiple choice questions. Choose the most appropriate answer:

value sets of quantum numbers are not possible? (a) n=0, l=0, ml = 0, ms = -1/2 (b) n=5, l=3,
ml = -4, ms = +1/2 (c) n=3, l=1, ml = -1, ms = -1/2 (d) n=6, l=1, ml = 0, ms = +1/2
(ii) What will be the maximum possible number of electrons having ms = -1/2 for n=5? (a) 50
(b) 25 (c) 32 (d) 72 Structure of Atom 33
(iii) Which of the following quantum numbers can distinguish between two electrons present
in the same orbital? (a) Azimuthal quantum number (b) Principal quantum number (c)
