Question

An element undergoes a reaction as shown: X+2eX2 The energy released is 30.87 eV/atom. This energy is used to dissociate 4 gm of hydrogen molecules equally into H+ and H (where H is the excited state of H atoms). The electron travels in an orbit whose circumference is equal to four times its de Broglie’s wavelength, in H. Determine the least number of moles of X that would be required for this to happen. Given: I.E. of H =13.6 eV/atom, bond energy of H2=4.526 ev/molecule

Solution

The correct option is B 2
2πr=4λ; n=4
Total energy required + total energy released = 0
2×4.526 eV×NA+2×13.6×NA+2×13.6×(1116)×NA30.87×x×NA=0
x=2
Hence, the moles of X required= 2
