Assertion: the distribution of electrons in different orbit is governed by bohr- bury scheme
Reason: electrons are filled in shellin stepwise manner in increasing order of energy of shell
Answers
Electron distribution
The distribution of electrons in different orbits or shells is governed by a scheme known as Bohr bury scheme.The arrangement of electrons in various energy levels of an atom is known as the electronic configuration of the atom. According to this scheme.
The electrons are arranged around the nucleus in different energy levels or energy shells. The electrons first occupy the shell with the lowest energy i.e., closest to the nucleus.
The first or the innermost energy shell (K or n = 1) can take only two electrons.
The second shell (L or n = 2) can contain upto 8 electrons.
From third shell (M or n = 3) onwards, the shells become bigger. The third shell can accommodate as many as 18 electrons. In general, the maximum number of electrons that can be present in any shell is 2n2 where n is the number of energy shell. Thus, the first orbit (n = 1, known as K shell) can contain 2 × 12 = 2 electrons, the second orbit (n = 2, known as L shell) can contain 2 × 22 = 8 electrons.
Answer:
if both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
Explanation:
The distribution of electrons in different orbits or shells is governed by a scheme known as Bohr-Bury scheme. Thus, the assertion is correct and the reason is also correct which states that Electrons are filled in the shells in a stepwise manner in increasing order of energy of the energy shell. However, it is not the correct explanation for assertion.
