MHT CET · Chemistry · Classification of Elements and Periodicity in Properties
If four different elements \(\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{B}, \mathrm{C}\) and D having electronic configuration as \(A=[\mathrm{Ne}] 3 \mathrm{~s}^2 3 \mathrm{p}^4\), \(\dot{B}=[\mathrm{Ne}] 3 \mathrm{~s}^2 3 \mathrm{p}^5, \mathrm{C}=[\mathrm{Ar}] 3 \mathrm{~d}^{10} 4 \mathrm{~s}^2 4 \mathrm{p}^4\) and \(\mathrm{D}=[\mathrm{Ar}] 3 \mathrm{~d}^{10} 4 \mathrm{~s}^2 4 \mathrm{p}^5\). Identify the element with largest atomic radius.
- A A
- B B
- C C
- D D
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) C
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Elements C and D belong to period 4 , while elements A and B are from period 3, therefore the former will be larger in size. The configuration of \(C\) and \(D\) is \(4 \mathrm{~s}^2 4 \mathrm{p}^4\) and \(4 \mathrm{~s}^2 4 \mathrm{p}^5\) respectively, therefore D lies to the right of C and would be smaller than C.
\(\therefore\) Element C will have the largest atomic radius.
\(\therefore\) Element C will have the largest atomic radius.
