The study of the 'Structure of the Atom' is crucial in understanding the fundamental building blocks of matter and the behavior of atoms. Throughout history, several models of the atom have been proposed, each contributing to our evolving comprehension of atomic structure. One of the earliest models was proposed by Thomson, who suggested the Plum Pudding model, envisioning electrons embedded in a positively charged sphere.

Rutherford then introduced the Nuclear model, emphasizing a dense, positively charged nucleus orbited by electrons. This model was instrumental in revealing the nucleus's presence and the atom's mostly empty space. Subsequently, Bohr proposed the Quantized model, incorporating quantization of angular momentum and discrete energy levels, revolutionizing atomic physics.

Transitioning to more modern theories, the Electron Cloud (Wave-Mechanical) model describes electrons as both particles and waves, demonstrating the uncertainty principle and the probability distribution of electron locations within the atom. Each model has its limitations; for instance, the Bohr model struggles with heavier elements due to its simplistic structure.

The concept of quantization of angular momentum, as depicted in the Bohr model, underpins the discrete energy levels within an atom. This quantization explains the stability of certain orbits and the emission or absorption of energy when electrons transition between levels, leading to the emission of specific light frequencies correlated with energy differences.

The interplay between light frequencies and colors in atomic structure is crucial in understanding spectroscopy. Experiments such as the Frank-Hertz experiment elucidate the quantization of energy levels through electron collisions with atoms, resulting in distinct energy thresholds and corresponding spectral lines.

Furthermore, the observation of line spectra from hot bodies and elements provides valuable insights into atomic structure, revealing unique spectral signatures associated with different elements. The study of absorption spectra and spectra of discharge lamps further refines our understanding by illustrating the absorption and emission of light at specific frequencies characteristic of the elements involved.

(a)() Meaning of artificial radioactivity;

The process by which a stable nucleus is bombarded with a neutron to make it unstable and so disintegrates/decays with the emission of particles/radiation and. energy.

Emission	Nature	Charge	Ionizing
Beta ($\beta$)	High speed electron	Negative	Moderately ionizing
Gamma ($\gamma$)	Electro-magnetic radiation	Neutral	Negligible ionizing ability
Alpha particles	Helium nucleus	Positive	Highly ionizing

(b) The kinetic energy of the electron can be calculated using the formula: KE = qV, where q is the charge of the electron and V is the potential difference. Substituting the given values, we get:

K.E = eV

KE = (1.6 x 10^-19 C)(30,000 V)

KE = 4.8 x 10^-15 J (c)

(i)

To calculate the slope of the graph, you need to determine the change in the dependent variable (kinetic energy) divided by the change in the independent variable (frequency). In this case, you can choose any two points on the graph and calculate the slope using the following formula:

slope = (kinetic_energy2 - kinetic_energy1) / (frequency2 - frequency1)

Let's take two points from the given data, for example:

Point 1: (frequency1, kinetic_energy1) = (6.8 x 10^14 Hz, 0.8 x 10^-19 J)
Point 2: (frequency2, kinetic_energy2) = (8.0 x 10^14 Hz, 1.6 x 10^-19 J)

Now, we can calculate the slope:

slope = (1.6 x 10^-19 J - 0.8 x 10^-19 J) / (8.0 x 10^14 Hz - 6.8 x 10^14 Hz)

slope = 1 x 10^-5 J Hz^(-1).

To determine Planck's constant from the given graph and slope, we can use the equation:

slope = h / e

where h is Planck's constant and e is the elementary charge (1.602176634 x 10^-19 C).

From the previous calculation, the slope of the graph is 1 x 10^-5 J Hz^(-1).

Let's substitute the values into the equation to solve for Planck's constant:

1 x 10^-5 J Hz^(-1) = h / (1.602176634 x 10^-19 C)

To isolate h, we can rearrange the equation:

h = slope * e

Substituting the values:

h = (1 x 10^-5 J Hz^(-1)) * (1.602176634 x 10^-19 C)

Evaluating the expression:

h ≈ 1.602176634 x 10^-24 J·s

Therefore, from the given graph and slope, the approximate value of Planck's constant is 1.602176634 x 10^-24 J·s.

(ii) To determine the threshold frequency of radiation from the given information, we need to use the concept of the photoelectric effect and the relationship between the kinetic energy of photoelectrons and the frequency of incident radiation.

According to the photoelectric effect, electrons are ejected from a metal surface when illuminated by electromagnetic radiation of sufficient energy. The minimum frequency of radiation required to eject electrons is known as the threshold frequency.

The relationship between the kinetic energy of photoelectrons and the frequency of incident radiation is given by the equation:

K.E. = h * (frequency - threshold_frequency)

where K.E. is the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons, h is Planck's constant, frequency is the frequency of incident radiation, and threshold_frequency is the threshold frequency.

From the graph, we have the slope, which is equal to h, and the kinetic energy corresponding to each frequency. We can select any point on the graph where the kinetic energy is non-zero and solve for the threshold frequency.

Let's choose the point (frequency, kinetic energy) = (6.8 x 10^14 Hz, 0.8 x 10^-19 J) from the given data.

0.8 x 10^-19 J = slope * (6.8 x 10^14 Hz - threshold_frequency)

Substituting the slope value:

0.8 x 10^-19 J = 1.602176634 x 10^-24 J·s * (6.8 x 10^14 Hz - threshold_frequency)

To solve for the threshold frequency, we can rearrange the equation:

threshold_frequency = 6.8 x 10^14 Hz - (0.8 x 10^-19 J / (1.602176634 x 10^-24 J·s))

Calculating the threshold frequency:

threshold_frequency = 6.8 x 10^14 Hz - 4.992706701 x 10^4 Hz

threshold_frequency ≈ 6.799500729 x 10^14 Hz

Therefore, the threshold frequency of radiation is approximately 6.799500729 x 10^14 Hz.

(iii)

To determine the work function of the metal, we can use the equation:

Work function = h * threshold_frequency

where h is Planck's constant and threshold_frequency is the threshold frequency of radiation.

From the previous calculations, the approximate value of Planck's constant is 1.602176634 x 10^-24 J·s and the threshold frequency is approximately 6.799500729 x 10^14 Hz.

Substituting these values into the equation, we can calculate the work function:

Work function = (1.602176634 x 10^-24 J·s) * (6.799500729 x 10^14 Hz)

Work function ≈ 1.090589631 x 10^-9 J

Therefore, based on the given information, the approximate value of the work function of the metal is 1.090589631 x 10^-9 J.
