The nature of cathode rays in discharge tube:

Correct answer: C. Is independent of the nature of the gas in discharge tube

  • A. Depends on the nature of gas taken in the discharge tube
  • B. Depends upon the nature of cathode in discharge tube
  • C. Is independent of the nature of the gas in discharge tube
  • D. Depends upon the nature of anode in the discharge tube

Explanation

Cathode rays in the discharge tube are the electrons produced due to ionisation of gas and that emitted by cathode due to collision of positive ions and are hence independent of nature of the gas in discharge tube.

About Atomic Structure

Atomic structure covers the discovery of the proton, Planck's quantum theory, hydrogen emission spectra and the evidence for quantized energy levels. You will use quantum numbers to describe orbitals, distinguish s, p, d and f orbital shapes, and write electronic configurations, including the correct order of electron filling.
