The basic difference between Mendeleev’s Periodic Law (A) and Modern Periodic Law (B) is:
1. | A is based on atomic weights while B is based on atomic numbers. |
2. | B is based on atomic weights while A is based on atomic numbers. |
3. | A is based on the number of isotopes while B is based on atomic numbers. |
4. | A is based on physical properties while B is based on chemical properties. |
The period and group number of the element with Z =114 are:
1. | 8th period and 16th group | 2. | 7th period and 14th group |
3. | 14th period and 7th group | 4. | 9th group and 14th period |
The ionic radius indicates the distance between the nucleus and:
1. Outermost shell of an atom.
2. Outermost shell of an ion.
3. Outermost shell of the cation only.
4. Outermost shell of the anion only.
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 energy of an electron in the ground state of the hydrogen atom is . The ionization enthalpy of atomic hydrogen in terms of J is:
1. 2.81 × 106 J mol
2. 1.31 × 106 J mol
3. 2.31 × 106 J mol
4. 1.81 × 106 J mol
The first ionization enthalpy values (in kJ mol–1) of group 13 elements are :
B | Al | Ga | In | Tl |
801 | 577 | 579 | 558 | 589 |
The explanation for the deviation from the general trend can be -
1. Ga has lower ionization enthalpy than Al.
2. Ga has higher ionization enthalpy than Al.
3. Al has higher ionization enthalpy than Ga.
4. Ga has a lesser valence electron than Al.
An element with higher negative electron gain enthalpy in the given pair is:
(i) O or F (ii) F or Cl
1. O, Cl
2. F, F
3. O, F
4. F, Cl
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. |
The statement that "the electronegativity of N on the Pauling scale is 3.0 in all the nitrogen compounds" is incorrect because:
1. | Electronegativity of an element is a variable property. |
2. | Pauling scale is not used to measure electronegativity. |
3. | The electronegativity of N on the Pauling scale is 12.0 |
4. | None of the above. |
The correct statement about the radius of a species is :
1. | Radius increases during cation and anion formation. |
2. | Radius increases during anion formation and decreases during cation formation. |
3. | Radius decreases in cation as well as anion. |
4. | Radius decreases during anion formation and increases during cation formation. |
