Why does the following reaction occur? `XeO_(6)^(4-)(aq)+2F^(Θ)(aq)+6H^(o+)(aq) rarr XeO_(3)(g)+F_(2)(g)+3H_(2)O(l)` What conclusion about the compound `Na_(4)XeO_(6)` (of which `XeO_(6)^(4-)` is a part) can be drawn from the reaction?

Answer» `overset(+8)(Xe)O_(6)^(4-)(aq)+2F^(Θ)(aq)+6H^(o+)(aq)rarr overset(+6)(Xe)O_(3)(s)+overset(0)(F_(2))(g)+3H_(2)O(l)`
Here, oxidation number of `Xe` decreases from `+8` in `XeO_(6)^(4-)` to `+6` in `XeO_(3)`, while that of F increases from `-1` in `F^(Θ)` to `0` in `F_(2)`. Therefore, `XeO_(6)^(4-)` is reduced while `F^(Θ)` is oxidised. This reaction occure because `Na_(2)XeO_(6) (or XeO_(6)^(4-))` is a stronger oxidising agent than `F_(2)`.

Write the basic features of photon pictures of e.m. radiation on which Einstein’s photoelectric equation is based.

Answer»

Photon picture of em radiations : 

(i). In interaction of radiation with matter, radiation behaves as if it is made of particles like photons. 

(ii). Each photon has energy E(= h) and momentum p (=\(\frac{h}{\lambda}\)

(iii). Irrespective of the intensity of radiation, all the photons of a particular frequency and wavelength have the same energy and same momentum. 

(iv). Photon energy is independent of the intensity of radiations. 

(v). Photons emitted from a source of radiations travel with the speed of light. 

(vi). The rest mass of a photon is zero. 

(vii). Photons are electrically neutral 

(viii). In a photon particle collision, the energy and momentum are conserved. 

However,

Number of photons may not be conserved, photon may be absorbed or new photon may be created.

Rs 9000 becomes Rs 18000 at SI in 8 years . Find the rate of interest .

Answer»

Principal = Rs. 9000 

Amount = Rs. 18000

Time = 8 years

S.I = A - P

= 18000 - 9000 

= 9000

S.I = (P × R × T)/100

9000 = (9000 x R x 8)/ 100

9000 x 100 = 72000 x R

900000 = 72000 x R

900000/ 72000 = R

25/2 = R

R = 12.5 %
