Electrical conductivity of metals expressed in ohm-1 m-1 is of the order of
A:
1010
B:
105
C:
10-4
D:
10-6
Answer: B

Conductivity is reciprocal of resistivity. Since resistivity of metals is around 10-7 ohm-m, conductivity is about 107 ohm-1 m-1. So 105 is the nearest value.

For a given value (n) of principle quantum number, the number of possible electronic states are
A:
n
B:
n2
C:
n3
D:
n
Answer: B

The total number of states corresponding to a given value of n is equal to

(2l + 1) = 1 + 3 + .... + [2(n-1) + 1] = n2.
