JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 3. Classification of elements and periodicity in properties
The correct order of density is
- A \(Be > Mg > Ca > Sr\)
- B \(Sr > Ca > Mg > Be\)
- C \(Sr > Be > Mg > Ca\)
- D \(Be > Sr > Mg > Ca\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(Sr > Be > Mg > Ca\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In \(II'A'\) group density decreases down the group till \(Ca\) and after that it increases.Correct order of density is \(Sr > Be > Mg > Ca\)
