Sol. (3)

$\mathrm{NO}_{3}^{-}$ : The maximum limit of nitrate in drinking water is 50 ppm. Excess nitrate in drinking

water can cause disease. Such as methemoglobinemia.

$\mathrm{SO}_{4}^{2-}:$ above 500 ppm of $\mathrm{SO}_{4}^{2-}$ ion in drinking water causes laxative effect otherwise at moderate levels it is harmless

$\mathrm{F}^{-}$ : Above 2ppm concentration of $\mathrm{F}^{-}$ in drinking water cause brown mottling of teeth.

$\frac{1}{\lambda}=\frac{2 \times 10^{-18}}{\mathrm{hc}}\left[\frac{1}{(1)^{2}}-\frac{1}{(2)^{2}}\right]$

$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{\lambda}=\frac{2 \times 10^{-18}}{6.625 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^{8}} \times \frac{3}{4}$

$\mathrm{E}=\phi+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}^{2}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\lambda}=\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\lambda_{0}}+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}^{2}$

$\Rightarrow \mathrm{v}^{2}=\frac{2 \mathrm{hc}}{\mathrm{m}}\left[\frac{1}{\lambda}-\frac{1}{\lambda_{0}}\right] \Rightarrow \mathrm{v}=\sqrt{\frac{2 \mathrm{hc}}{\mathrm{m}}\left[\frac{1}{\lambda}-\frac{1}{\lambda_{0}}\right]}$

Q. A stream of electrons from a heated filament was passed between two charged plates kept at a potential difference V esu. If e and m are charge and mass of an electron respectively, then the value of $\mathrm{h} / \lambda$ (where $\lambda$is wavelength associated with electron wave) is given by :

(1) $\sqrt{2 \mathrm{meV}}$

(2) mev

(3) $2 \mathrm{meV}$

(4) $\sqrt{\mathrm{meV}}$

[JEE-Main 2016]

Sol. (1)

As electron of charge ‘e’ is passed through ‘V’ volt, kinetic energy of electron becomes = ‘eV’

As wavelength of $e^{-}$ wave = $(\lambda)=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\sqrt{2 \mathrm{m} \cdot \mathrm{K} \cdot \mathrm{E}}}$

$\lambda=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\sqrt{2 \mathrm{meV}}}$

$\therefore \quad \frac{\mathrm{h}}{\lambda}=\sqrt{2 \mathrm{meV}}$
