Q41. Explain Hund’s rule of maximum multiplicity with example. 

Ans. Hunds Rule of Maximum Multiplicity rule states that for a given electron configuration, the term with maximum multiplicity falls lowest in energy. According to this rule electron pairing in p, d and f orbitals cannot occur until each orbital of a given subshell contains one electron each or is singly occupied.

 

Q42. Define closed system, intensive properties and internal energy. 

Ans. Closed system– The system which allows the exchange of energy not of matter with the surroundings is called a closed system.
