Explanation: The explanation for this question will be added soon.

Correct answer: III A
  • A. Ne
  • B. He
  • C. X
  • D. Kr

Explanation: Helium is the least polarizable noble gas due to presence of weakest Van der Waal's forces.

Correct answer: He
  • A. Increase in atomic radius
  • B. Decrease in atomic radius
  • C. Increase in electronegativity
  • D. All of the above options are correct

Explanation: Electron affinity decreases from top to bottom within a group. This is caused by the increase in atomic radius.

Correct answer: Increase in atomic radius
  • A. NaCl
  • B. AlCl3
  • C. MgCl3
  • D. KCl

Explanation: The ionic characteristics decrease as we move from left to right in the periodic table and it increases as we move top to bottom in any…

Correct answer: AlCl3
  • A. F2
  • B. Cl2
  • C. Br2
  • D. I2

Explanation: Order of reactivity towards halogenation is F2 > Cl2 >Br2 > I2.

Correct answer: F2
  • A. NaCl
  • B. MgCI3
  • C. AICl3
  • D. KCI

Explanation: The difference in electronegativity between aluminium (Al) and chlorine (Cl) is 3.16-1.61 = 1.55 which is lower than 1.7, hence, according…

Correct answer: AICl3
  • A. Proton number increases
  • B. Atomic radius increases
  • C. Shielding decrease
  • D. Atomic radius decreases

Explanation: As atomic size increases, the electrons become further away from the nucleus and hence, electron affinity decreases.

Correct answer: Atomic radius increases
  • A. Complete outermost shell
  • B. Ability to form negative ion
  • C. Existence as diatomic molecule
  • D. Smaller size and higher nuclear charge in the resepective period

Explanation: Small size and high nuclear charge is the reason of high EN of fluorine

Correct answer: Smaller size and higher nuclear charge in the resepective period
  • A. Cs
  • B. Fr
  • C. Li
  • D. K

Explanation: Francium is toxic due to its radioactivity

Correct answer: Fr

  • B. Polarization power
  • C. Basicity of the metal
  • D. None of these options are correct

Explanation: OPTION A: Acidic character increases with an increase in oxidation state because the tendency to gain electrons increases with the…

Correct answer: Basicity of the metal
  • A. Cs
  • B. Fr
  • C. Li
  • D. K

Explanation: Francium is radioactive because it contains unstable nuclei and is able to naturally release energy in the process of shedding high speed…
