In a hydrogen atom an electron makes a transition from \( n_1 \rightarrow n_2 \), where \( n_1 \) and \( n_2 \) are the principal quantum numbers of the two states. Assuming Bohr's model to be valid, if the time period of the electron in the initial state is eight times that in the final state, the possible values of \( n_1 \) and \( n_2 \) are:
- A \( n_1 = 8, n_2 = 4 \)
- B \( n_1 = 4, n_2 = 8 \)
- C \( n_1 = 8, n_2 = 2 \)
- D \( n_1 = 2, n_2 = 8 \)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \( n_1 = 8, n_2 = 4 \)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( T \propto n^3 \) \( T_1 = 8 T_2 \) \( \frac{n_1^3}{n_2^3} = 8 \) \( \frac{n_1}{n_2} = 2 \) \( n_1 = 2n_2 \) \( n_1 = 8, n_2 = 4 \)

The transition metals and their compounds are known for their catalytic activity. This activity is ascribed to their ability to adopt multiple oxidation states and to form complexes. Vanadium(V) oxide (in Contact Process), finely divided iron, and nickel (in Catalytic Hydrogenation) are some of the examples. Catalysts at a solid surface involve the formation of bonds between reactant molecules and atoms of the surface of the catalyst (first row transition metals utilise 3d and 4s electrons for bonding). This has the effect of increasing the concentration of the reactants at the catalyst surface and also weakening of the bonds in the reacting molecules (the activation energy is lowering). Also because the transition metal ions can change their oxidation states, they become more effective as catalysts.

A homogeneous mixture of two or more than two components has uniform composition and properties. The binary solutions have two components, which may be solid, liquid or gas. The resultant solution has a larger amount of solvent and a smaller amount of solute. The amount of solute in a given amount of solvent decides the concentration of the resulting solution. The concentration can be expressed in various ways, like molarity, molality, normality and mole fraction.
