<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For two species to react, the collision between the atoms must be effective.

The chemical equation for the reaction illustrated in the image follows:

CH_2CH_2+HCl\rightarrow CH_3CH_2Cl

Chlorine and hydrogen atoms are getting attached to the reactant, therefore they are participating in the reaction.

There are 2 factors on which the effective collisions depends:

  1. Energy factor: This factor states that the colliding molecules must have energy greater than the threshold energy.
  2. Orientation factor: This factor states that the colliding molecules must have a proper orientation at the time of collision.

In the image illustrated, the orientation of the reactant is not proper for the collision. Hence, the correct answer is Option D.

An electron jumps from energy level 1 to energy level 2 by absorbing a photon of energy 8 eV. What is the most likely energy of
Mkey [24]

Answer:

C. 8 eV

Explanation:

In atoms, the energy of each level is quantised. That is one of the reasons why an electron can not exist between energy levels. Thus, when the electron absorbs energy of 8 ev, it get excited and jumps to energy level 2 which has the current value of energy of the electron.

Thus for the electron to move back to its initial energy level, it must emit the exact energy absorbed for its excitation. Therefore, the likely energy of the photon that will be emitted is 8 ev. This would make the electron to have energy that would make it to exist on energy level 1.
