According to Moseley, a straight-line graph is obtained on plotting:

1. The frequencies of characteristic X-rays of elements against their atomic numbers.

2. The square of the frequencies of characteristic X-rays of elements against their atomic numbers.

3. The square root of the frequencies of characteristic X-rays of elements against their atomic numbers.

4. The reciprocal of the frequencies of characteristic X-rays of elements against their atomic numbers.

Assertion: The 5th period of the periodic table contains 18 elements and not 32.

Reason: When n = 5, the value of l = 0, 1, 2, 3. The order in which the energy of available orbits 4d, 5s and 5p increases is 5s < 4d < 5p, and the total number of orbitals available is 9, thus 18 electrons can be accommodated.

  1. If both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion
  2. If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion
  3. If the assertion is true but the reason is false
  4. If both the assertion and reason are false
