Classification Of Elements And Periodicity In Properties Question 14
Question 14 - 2024 (30 Jan Shift 2)
Given below are two statements:
Statement - I: Along the period, the chemical reactivity of the element gradually increases from group 1 to group 18.
Statement - II: The nature of oxides formed by group 1 element is basic while that of group 17 elements is acidic.
In the the light above statements, choose the most appropriate from the questions given below:
(1) Both statement I and Statement II are true.
(2) Statement I is true but Statement II is False.
(3) Statement I is false but Statement II is true.
(4) Both Statement I and Statement II is false.
Show Answer
Answer (3)
Solution
Chemical reactivity of elements decreases along the period therefore statement -I is false.
Group - 1 elements from basic nature oxides while group - 17 elements form acidic oxides therefore statement - II is true.
