JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 3. Classification of elements and periodicity in properties

\(B\) has a smaller first ionization enthalpy than \(Be\). Consider the following statements : \((I)\) It is easier to remove \(2 \mathrm{p}\) electron than \(2 \mathrm{s}\) electron \((II)\) \(2 \mathrm{p}\) electron of \(\mathrm{B}\) is more shielded from the nucleus by the inner core of electrons than the \(2 s\) electrons of \(Be.\) \((III)\; 2 s\) electron has more penetration power than \(2 \mathrm{p}\) electron. \((IV)\) atomic radius of \(\mathrm{B}\) is more than \(\mathrm{Be}\) (Atomic number \(\mathrm{B}=5, \mathrm{Be}=4\) ) The correct statements are

  1. A \((I), (II)\) and \((III)\)
  2. B \((II), (III)\) and \((IV)\)
  3. C \((I), (III)\) and \((IV)\)
  4. D \((I), (II)\) and \((IV)\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \((I), (II)\) and \((III)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{Be} \Rightarrow 1 \mathrm{s}^{2} 2 \mathrm{s}^{2}\) \(\mathrm{B} \Rightarrow 1 \mathrm{s}^{2} 2 \mathrm{s}^{2} 2 \mathrm{p}^{1}\) \(\mathrm{B}\) has a smaller size than \(Be\) it is easier to remove \(2 \mathrm{p}\) electron than \(2 \mathrm{s}\) electron due to less…
