Magnesium reacts with an element (X) to form an ionic compound. If the ground state electronic configuration of (X) is , the simplest formula for this compound is:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Element of the third period that is expected to exhibit positive electron gain enthalpy is:
1. | Na | 2. | Al |
3. | Cl | 4. | Ar |
The correct order of ionic radii is:
1.
2.
3.
4.
1. | C < N < F < O | 2. | C < N < O < F |
3. | C < O < N < F | 4. | C < F < N < O |
The formula for the oxide formed by Eka-aluminum is:
1.
2.
3.
4. EO
The species Ar, K+ and Ca2+ contain the same number of electrons. In which order do their radii increase?
1. Ar < K+ < Ca2+
2. Ca2+ < Ar < K+
3. Ca2+ < K+ < Ar
4. K+ < Ar < Ca2+
The trend of atomic radius in a period and a group is :
1. | Generally decreases from right to left across a period and increases down a group. |
2. | Generally increases from left to right across a period and decreases down a group. |
3. | Generally decreases from left to right across a period and increases down a group. |
4. | Generally remains same from left to right across a period and increases down a group. |
The basic difference between the electron gain enthalpy (Ea) and electronegativity (EN) is:
1. | Ea is the tendency to lose electrons, while EN is the tendency to repel the shared pairs of electrons. |
2. | Ea is the tendency to gain neutrons, while EN is the tendency to attract the shared pairs of electrons. |
3. | Ea is the tendency to donate electrons, while EN is the tendency to attract the shared pairs of molecules. |
4. | Ea is the tendency to gain electrons, while EN is the tendency to attract the shared pairs of electrons. |
