The focal length of a convex lens in air and in a liquid medium are 20 cm and 80 cm, respectively. If the absolute refractive index of lens is 1.5, then the refractive index of liquid is :
- A 3/2
- B 4/3
- C 8/9
- D 9/8
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 4/3
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( \frac{1}{f_a} = (n_l - 1)K \) \( \frac{1}{f_l} = \left(\frac{n_l}{n_m} - 1\right)K \) \( \frac{f_l}{f_a} = \frac{n_l - 1}{\frac{n_l}{n_m} - 1} \) \( \frac{80}{20} = \frac{1.5 - 1}{\frac{1.5}{n_m} - 1} \) \( 4 = \frac{0.5}{\frac{1.5}{n_m} - 1} \)…

- Answer the question on the basis of passage given below:
Second period elements of p-Block differs from the rest of their group members due to their small atomic size, high electronegativity, high ionization enthalpy and absence of d-orbitals. The elements from the second period like C, N, O have unique property of forming \(p \pi-p \pi\) multiple bonds whereas other heavier elements of p-block form \(d \pi-p \pi\) multiple bonds. This changes the properties of second period elements to great extent. Also the single bond strength of the p-block elements with their own atoms gets affected by their atomic size and presence of lone pairs.
Inert pair effect also affects the properties of the p-Block elements especially for those elements which are present from 4th period onward and this happens due to poor screening effect of inner (n-1)d subshell electrons.
