2.22 Which of the following are isoelectronic species i.e., those having the same number of electrons?

Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+, S2–, Ar.

From de Broglie’s equation,

$λ = \frac{h}{mv}$

Given,
Kinetic energy (K.E) of the electron = 3.0 × 10–25 J

$Since K . E . = \frac{1}{2} {mv}^{2}$
$∴ Velocity (v) = \sqrt{\frac{2 K . E .}{m}}$
$= \sqrt{\frac{2 (3.0 x 10^{- 25} J)}{9.10939 x 10^{- 31} kg}}$
$= \sqrt{6.5866 x 10^{4}}$
$v = 811.579 m / s$

Substituting the value in the expression of λ:
$λ = \frac{6.626 x 10^{- 34} Js}{(9.10939 x 10^{- 31} kg) (811.579 m / s)}$
$λ = 9.9625 x 10^{- 7} m$
Hence, the wavelength of the electron is 8.9625 × $10^{- 7}$ m.
