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

In general, the properties that decrease and increase down a group in the periodic table respectively are

  1. A atomic radius and electronegativity
  2. B electron gain enthalpy and electronegativity
  3. C electronegativity and atomic radius
  4. D electronegativity and electron gain enthalpy
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) electronegativity and atomic radius

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

On moving down a group, electronegativity decreases and atomic radius increases for representative elements.
