If ' \(B\) ' is a noble gas, choose the correct answers from the following statements (1) ' \(A\) ' has higher electron affinity (2) ' \(C\) ' exists in +2 oxidation state (3) ' \(D\) ' is an alkaline earth metal

  1. A (1) and (2)
  2. B (2) and (3)
  3. C (1) and (3)
  4. D \((1),(2)\) and (3)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) (1) and (3)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, Atomic number of element \(B=Z\) ( \(\because\) noble gas \(\quad \therefore\) belong to zero group) Atomic number of element \(A=Z-1\) (ie, halogens) Atomic number of element \(C=Z+1\) (ie, group IA) Atomic number of element \(D=Z+2\) (ie, group IIA) \(\because\) Element…
