Mostly p-block elements react with-----each other to form binary compounds:
Correct answer: C. Halogens
- A. Oxygen
- B. Water
- C. Halogens
- D. Nitrogen
- E. Hydrogen
Explanation
Option C is correct. P-block elements primarily react with halogens to form binary compounds, such as halides. These elements can also react with hydrogen to form compounds like hydrides, but the most common reactivity for forming straightforward binary compounds is indeed with halogens.

About s-Block and p-Block Elements
The s and p blocks are studied through their valence-shell configurations, periodic trends and characteristic chemical properties. Work covers the reactions of Group I and Group II elements, the behaviour of Group IV elements, and how atomic size, ionization energy, electronegativity and metallic character change across periods and down groups.
