Correct Option
Explanation
Heavy water contains deuterium (²H) in place of ordinary hydrogen.

A nuclear reactor using U235 is to operate at a power level of 250 megawatts. If the energy released per fission of U235 is 200 MeV, the rate of consumption of U235 per year is (assuming that there are no losses and that the mass of atom is equal to the sum of masses of nucleus where each nucleon has a mass equal to 1 a.m.u.)
A. 123.79 kg
B. 182.94 kg
C. 23.84 kg
D. 92.59 kg
Answer & Solution

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Compute fission rate from power (250 MW) and energy per fission (200 MeV), multiply by seconds/year and mass per U-235 nucleus; this yields about 9.26×10^1 kg/year, so option B matches.

The unit of work function is:
A. Joule
B. Electron volt
C. That of threshold frequency
D. Both (A) and (B)
Answer & Solution
Discuss

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Work function is an energy, so its unit can be joule or electron-volt; thus both (A) and (B) apply.
1804
The ordinary hydrogen is:
A. Denoted by 2H
B. Called Protium
C. Denoted by 1H
D. Both (B) and (C)
Answer & Solution

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Ordinary hydrogen is called protium and is denoted by ^1H, so both B and C are correct.
1805
The path of electron in Rutherford atomic model according to classical theory is
A. parabolic
B. spiral
C. circular
D. straight line
Answer & Solution
Discuss

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Classical theory predicts accelerating electrons radiate energy and spiral into the nucleus, so the path would be a spiral.
1806
If elements with principal quantum number n > 4 were not allowed in nature, the number of possible elements would be
A. 64
B. 60
C. 4
D. 32
Answer & Solution
Discuss

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Maximum electrons up to n=4 = 2*(1^2+2^2+3^2+4^2)=2*30=60, so 60 possible elements.
1807
In an atom bomb, we use the process of
A. ionisation
B. electrolysis
C. fusion
D. fission
Answer & Solution
Discuss

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
An atom bomb releases energy via nuclear fission, the splitting of heavy nuclei into lighter fragments with large energy release.
1808
The rate of decay of a radioactive element
A. decreases inversely with time
B. is constant
C. decreases exponentially
D. increases directly with time
Answer & Solution
Discuss
Save
Report
Correct Option
Explanation
The activity (rate of decay) is proportional to the number of undecayed nuclei and therefore decreases exponentially with time.

The factor in Compton's equation has the dimensions of:
A. Angular momentum
B. Pressure
C. Length
D. Momentum
Answer & Solution

Correct Option
Explanation
The Compton factor h/(m c) has dimensions of length (the Compton wavelength).

The binding energy per nucleon for stable nuclides ranging from hydrogen onwards was found experimentally to be dependent on
A. the temperature of the sample of the nuclides
B. the chemical state of the nuclides
C. the mass number
D. the size of the nucleus
Answer & Solution
Discuss

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Binding energy per nucleon varies systematically with mass number (the binding energy curve), so it depends on the mass number.
