Assertion & Reasoning Based MCQs

The mass of an atom is due to the masses of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. The relative masses of protons and neutrons are almost equal to one. Therefore, the atomic mass of an element should be nearly a whole number. But in many cases the atomic masses are fractional. The main reason for these fractional atomic masses is that these elements occur in nature as a mixture of several isotopes. The atomic mass of an element is the average of the atomic masses of these isotopes in the ratio of their proportion of occurrence.

Question: An element occurs in two isotopic forms with atomic masses 10 and 11. What is the percentage abundance of two isotopes in the sample having atomic mass 10.80?
(a) 20, 80
(b) 50, 50
(c) 25, 70
(d) 60, 40 

Question: The fractional atomic masses of elements are due to the existence of
(a) isotopes having different masses
(b) diagonal relationship
(c) equal number of electrons and protons
(d) none of these. 

Question: Chlorine occurs in nature in the form of two isotopes with atomic masses 35 u and 37 u in the ratio of 3 : 1 respectively. Atomic mass of chlorine is
(a) 35.5 u
(b) 34.5 u
(c) 35 u
(d) 36 u 

a statement of assertion followed by a statement of reason is given. Choose the correct answer out of the following choices.  
(a) Both assertion and reason are true, and reason is correct explanation of the assertion.
(b) Both assertion and reason are true, but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
(c) Assertion is true, but reason is false.
(d) Assertion is false, but reason is true.

Reason : The atom is visualized as a pudding of positive charge with electrons (raisins) embedded in it. 

Question: Assertion : Anions are larger in size than the parent atom.
Reason : In an anion, the number of protons in the nucleus is less than the number of electrons moving around it.

Question: Assertion : The number of electrons gained,lost or shared by the atom of an element so as to complete its octet is called the valency of the element.
Reason : Elements having the same number of valence electrons in their atoms possess different chemical properties.

Reason : Cathode rays consist of negatively charged particles known as electrons.

Reason : Noble gases have 8 valence electrons. 

Question: Assertion : Electrons moving in the same orbit will not lose or gain energy.
Reason : On jumping from higher to lower energy level, the electron will gain energy.   

Question: Assertion : The distribution of electrons in different orbits or shells is governed by a scheme known as Bohr-Bury scheme.
Reason : Electrons are filled in the shells in a stepwise manner in increasing order of energy of the energy shell.

Reason : Electrons remain stationary in these orbits for sometime.

Case Based MCQs

The maximum number of the electrons which are permitted to be assigned to an energy shell of an atom is called the electron capacity of that shell. The distribution of electrons in different orbits or shell is governed by a scheme known as Bohr-Bury scheme. According to this scheme :
(i) The maximum number of the electrons that can be present in any shell is given by the formula 2n2 where, n is the number of energy level.
(ii) The maximum number of electrons that can be accommodated in the outermost shell is 8.
Electrons are filled in the shells in a stepwise manner in increasing order of energy of the energy shell.
