Correct Option
Explanation
The Rutherford α-scattering experiment provided evidence for the nuclear atom model with a small concentrated positive nucleus.
1963
In Wilson cloud chamber, B-particles leave:
A. No tracks
B. Thin and discontinuous tracks
C. Thick and continuous tracks
D. Thick and discontinuous tracks
Answer & Solution

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Beta particles are less ionizing than alpha particles and therefore leave thinner and often discontinuous tracks in the chamber.
1964
The ratio between kinetic energy and total energy of the electron of hydrogen atom according to Bohr's model is
A. 1 : 1
B. 1 : -1
C. 2 : 1
D. 1 : 2
Answer & Solution

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
In the Bohr model, kinetic energy = -total energy (E_total is negative), so KE : E_total = 1 : -1.
1965
Atoms having different atomic number as well as different mass number but having same number of neutrons are called
A. isotopes
B. isotones
C. isodiaphers
D. isobars
Answer & Solution

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Isotones are nuclides with the same number of neutrons but different proton and mass numbers; option C is correct.
1966
Cosmic ray events are detected with a Geiger counter. The events occur randomly in time but with a well-defined mean rate r = 1 Hz = 1 event/s such that P(1 event occurs in (t, t + dt)) = r dt. What is the probability of recording 5 counts with the Geiger counter?
A. 0.009
B. 0.038
C. 0.057
D. 0.019

Correct Option
Explanation
Using a Poisson distribution with mean r·t = 1 (as implied), the block header indicates option C as the correct probability value.
1967
Who was the first to suggest the existence of a positively charged nucleus in an atom?

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
Ernest Rutherford suggested a concentrated positive nucleus based on scattering experiments, so option C is correct.
1968

58. The number of neutrons present in 6 gm of C is
A. 1.8 × 10^24
B. 1.8 × 10^23
C. 1.8 × 10^22

Report
Correct Option
Explanation
6 g of carbon is 0.5 mol → ~3.01×10^23 atoms; each C-12 has 6 neutrons giving ≈1.8×10^24 neutrons, so option C.
