Question

Of the bonds C-C, C=C, and C=C, the C=C bond is A) strongest/shortest B) strongest/longest C) weakest/longest D) weakest/shortest E) intermediate in both strength and length Write the symbols of top 20 elements in order. Identify each statement as true or false: (a) Cations are larger than their corresponding neutral atoms, (b) Li^+ is smaller than Li. (c) Cl- is bigger than I^-. Based on their positions in the periodic table, predict which atom of the following pairs will have the smaller first ionization energy: (a) Cl, Ar: (b) Be, Ca: Arrange the following oxides in order of increasing acidity. CO_2, CaO, Al_2 O_3, SO_3, SiO_2, P_2 O_5.

Explanation / Answer

6. (a) Strongest and shortest

(7)

1. H = Hyderogen

2. He = Helium

3. Li = Litihium

4. Be = Beryllium

5. B = Boron

6. C = Carbon

7. N = Nitrogen

8. O = Oxygen

9. F = Fluorine

10. Ne = Neon

11. Na = Sodium

12. Mg = Magnesium

13. Al = Aluminium

14. Si = Silicon

15. P = Phosphorous

16. S = Sulphur

17. Cl = Chlorine

18. Ar = Argon

19. K = Potassium

20. Ca = Calcium

8)

(a) False

(b) True

(c) False

Reason: Cations are smaller than neutral atoms due to having less number of electrons.

Size of ions of same charge will increase in a gorup.

9)

(a) Cl

(b) Ca

Reason: Ionisation energy increases in a period but decreases in a group.

10)

CaO < Al2O3 < CO2 < SiO2 < SO3 < P2O5

Reason:

Acidic nature of oxides increases across a period and decreases down a group.
