The total energy that will be released if a nucleus is built from its constituents is called the:

Binding energy of the nucleus

Binding energy of the solid

Binding energy of the atom

None of these

A set of atoms in an excited state decay.

In general, to any of the states with lower energy.

Into a lower state only when excited by an external electric field.

All together simultaneously into a lower state.

To emit photons only when they collide.

The simple Bohr model cannot be directly applied to calculate the energy levels of an atom with many electrons. This is because

Of the electrons not being subject to a central force.

Of the electrons colliding with each other

Of screening effects

The force between the nucleus and an electron will no longer be given by Coulomb’s law.
