CHEM ACADEMY 3 Periodic Properties (Solution)
10. d-electron density is more diffused than P electron density. Thus, d-electron has less screening
effect than P electron.
11. Down the group, size of halide anions increases due to increase in number of shells. Hence
F– < Cl– < Br– < I–
For hydride ion (H–), Number of protons in nucleus = 1, Number of electrons = 2
The small nucleus cannot hold the negative charge density firmly. Thus, electron density expands
resulting in the size of H– being slightly smaller than I–. Hence the order (b) F– < Cl– < Br– < H– < I–
Correct answer is (b)
12. Reducing agent power is a resultant of subH + I.E.H + nydH
Li+ has a very high charge density which accounts for its highly negative hydration energy & hence
reducing agent power.
13. (a) is not possible because n  m (can’t be equal to)
(b) is not possible because. n   (can’t be equal to)
(d) is not possible because n = 4 for an electron in 4f orbital.
Thus (c) is correct.
14. (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) represent 1s, 2s, X, 3d, 3d orbitals respectively.
In absence of magnetic & electric field (iv) & (v) will have same energy as they have equal values of
n& .
15. n +  = 5. The feasible combinations are

i.e.
CHEM ACADEMY (n = 3,  = 2)
3d
(n = 4,  = 1)
4p
(n = 5,  = 0)
5s
No. of e – 10 + 6 + 2
Hence, the correct answer is (c) 18.
16. For n = 4,  = 0 to (4 – 1)
i.e. 0 to 3 maximum value of  = 3
17. Atomic number of M = 9 E.C. = 1s22s22p5
To have 8 e– in valence shell, it will form a uninegative ion, i.e. stable ion is represented by M–.
18. (i) I is an s-block element. It can’t show variable O.S.
(ii) II is not a d-block element but an f block element
(iii) Compound formed between I and III will be ionic
(iv) IV is a d-block element. It can show variable O.S.
Hence all the statements are false.
19. Down the group, electropositive character increases. Also, alkali metals are more electropositive
than alkaline earth metals. Hence, correct option is (b) [Xe] 6s1
20. Given element is a d-Block element
Group Number: No. of s e– + No. of d e– = 2 + 5 = 7
21. n = 4 (Period no.). Also P subshell as 2e– i.e. d-orbitals are fully filled.
Group No.: 2 + 10 + 2 = 14

CHEM ACADEMY 4 Periodic Properties (Solution)
22. The general E.C. of alkali metal series is ns1, Hence, option (c) is correct.
23. (d) mL = –1 is not possible for an s-orbital as there is only one value of m for s-orbital i.e. m = 0.
24. The possible value of  are from 0 to (n – 1)
n = 3 &  = 3 are not possible. Hence option (d) is correct.
25. ml can have values ranging from  to  . Thus,  = 2 & mL = –3 are not possible.
26. (a) is not possible as n should be 4.
(c) is not possible as  should be 1 (P orbital)
(d) is not possible as  should be 1 (P-orbital)
Thus, option (b) is correct.
27. For Z = 92, E.C. [Rn]86 · 5f4 7s2
Thus, number of possible shells = 7.
28. The atomic radius gradually decreases from Sc to Mn and for Fe, Co, Ni, it remains constant. Then,
it gradually increases from Ni to Zn.
Hence statement (d) is incorrect.
29. (a) & (b) are d-block elements. (c) is an s-block element.
30. For isoelectronic species, more is the atomic number, smaller is the size. Thus, the order would be
(a) N3– > O2– > F– > Ne > Na+ > Mg2+
A.No. 7 8 9 10 11 12
31.
32. CHEM ACADEMY 2+
The given species are isoelectronic. Hence, the order would be Mg < Na < F . + –

Down the group, the size of atom increases. Also, the atomic size of anion is always larger than its
parent atom. Hence I– has maximum size.
33. Hg+2 has more positive O.S. So the nucleus, holds the electron density more firmly than in Hg+1.
Then, size: Hg+1 > Hg+2
34. Atomic size increases on going down the group & decreases along left to right in a period. Thus (c)
F < N < P < Si
35. Ca is a 4th period element. So it has maximum size. Also, size decreases on moving from left to
right in periodic table. Thus, Cl < Mg.
(b) Cl < Mg < Ca
36. O2– has maximum size, Al3+ has minimum size. (Refer to Question 30.)
37. Be is a 2nd period element while Mg & Na are 3rd period elements. Mg2+ & Na+ isoelectronic.
Since Mg2+(12) has higher atomic number, it will have a lower size than Na+
Hence Be2+ < Mg2+ < Na+.
38. The radius of cation is always samller than parent atom while the radius of anion is always larger
than parent atom.
Thus (b) option is correct.
39. Both Pm & PM of K will be greater than that of Na. (Down the group, atomic radius increase).
Also for a given element, metallic radius is always larger than covalent radius.
40. For largest cation & largest anion, there will be maximum distance between their centres
(b) Thus CsI is the correct option (Cs+ & I–)

Based on size
(smaller size,
more ionisation

42. Down the group, ionization potential decreases.


Along the period, ionization potential increases.
Hence Ca > Ba > K
43. Be  1s2 2s2. It has fully filled E.C. Thus, I.E. is maximum for this process.
44. There is not a significant gap between IE2 & IE1, Thus alkaline earth metals form dipositive ions.
45. Mg   [Ne]3s1

Na   [Ne]
Na+ has noble gas configuration while Mg+ is one electron extra of it. Thus (IE2) Mg < IE2(Na).

Li  1s 2 2s1 Be  1s2 2s2 (Fully filled)

B  1s 2 2s 2 2p1 C  1s2 2s2 2p 2


* Be has more IE1 than B & Li
* C has maximum I.E. due to smallest size.
47. In (c) after losing 2e–, noble gas configuration is attained. Thus, maximum difference between IE2
& IE3
48. Due to screening effect, the outermost electrons are held less tightly. So, I.E. decreases.
49. IE1 = 6000 kJ mol–1 IE2 : IE2 = 3 : 2
Let I.E2= 3s & I.E.3 = 2s
H M(g)  M2+(g) = 10000 kJ mol–1
6000 + 3x + 2x = 10000
x = 800 kJ mol–1
IE3 = 2x = 1600 kJ mol–1
50. (c) After the loss of 2e–, noble gas configuration is attained

CHEM ACADEMY 6 Periodic Properties (Solution)
52. IE2 is always greater than IE1 as it is more difficult to remove an e– from a unipositive cation than a
neutral atom.
53. Be2+  1s2 C2+  1s2 2s2 B  1s2 2s1
1s orbitals are more penetrated than 2s. So, more energy is required in Be2+
Order of IE3 : Be > C > B.
54. IE2 of M(g) is 200 eV
Thus, (d) is incorrect.
55. (b) After losing 1 e– it attains noble gas configuration. So, a high amount of energy is required to
remove second electron.
56. (c), Exactly half filled configurations are most stable.
57. (c) O–  O2–, this process requires energy to overcome the repulsions between incoming 2nd elec-
tron & outemost shell of O– ion.
58. Electron affinity increases along the period & decreases down the group. However O < S as O has
a small size and it is tough to accomodate an electron in relatively compact 2nd shell.
59. E.A. O (2nd period) < S (3rd period) F (2nd period) < Cl (3rd period)
(b) O < S < F < Cl
60. Electron affinity is attraction for incoming electron. Negative ions will not attract e–. Also, Na+ has
larger size than Li+. Thus Li+ has maximum E.A.
61. (b) Cl > Si > Na > Ar

62.

65. Be  Be 
1s 2 2s 2 1s 2 2s 2 2p1
Fully filled configuration is disturbed. Hence Be– is most unstable.
66. Most electronegative element is flourine (F)
Outermost configuration : ns2np5
67. (a) 1s22s22p5  Hourine, which is the most electronegative element.
68. (b) O has the highest electronegativity after flourine.
69. Acidic strength of non metal oxides  Electronegativity (  ) as electronegativity increases along a
