The elements in which electrons are progressively filled in 4f-orbitals are called:
| 1. | Actinoids | 2. | Transition elements |
| 3. | Lanthanoids | 4. | Halogens |
The correct order of size of the given species is:
| 1. | I > I– > I+ | 2. | I+ > I– > I |
| 3. | I > I+ > I– | 4. | I– > I > I+ |
The formation of oxide ion O2-(g), from oxygen atom, requires first an exothermic and then an endothermic step as shown below
Thus, the process of formation of O2- in the gas phase is unfavourable even though O2- is isoelectronic with neon. It is due to the fact that:
| 1. | Oxygen is more electronegative |
| 2. | Addition of electron in oxygen results in a larger size of the ion |
| 3. | Electron repulsion outweighs the stability gained by achieving noble gas configuration |
| 4. | O- ion has comparatively smaller size than oxygen atom |
The outermost electronic configuration of the last element of the p-block in the 6th period is represented by:
1.
2.
3.
4.
