Multiple choice chemistry d- and f-block elements actinoids the actinoids the d-and f-block elements comparison of lanthanoids and actinoids

An atom of element has $2K, 8L$ and $3M$ electrons. Then the element belongs to :

  1. IA group

  2. IIA group

  3. IIIA group

  4. IVA group
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The total number of electrons present in all the shells are $2+8+3=13$, hence the atomic number of element is $13$ and the electronic configuration would be $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^1 $. Element belongs to $|||A$ group.

B Correct answer
Explanation

Tarapur Atomic Power Station (T.A.P.S) was the first nuclear power plant in India. The construction of the plant was started in 1962 and the plant went operation in 1969. It is the world's oldest nuclear power plant in commercial operation. It was build for the departments of Atomic Energy by General Electric and Bechtel.

An atom bomb is based on the principle of

  1. nuclear bomb

  2. nuclear fusion

  3. the liquid drop model

  4. none of these
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

A

Atom bomb is based on the principles of nuclear bomb. When the nuclear bomb detonated gamma rays and X-rays emitted it to thermonuclear temperatures. The ensuing fission reaction creates enormous numbers of high speed neutrons, which can then induce fission in materials not normally prone to it, such as depleted uranium.
