WBJEE · Chemistry · p Block Elements (Group 15, 16, 17 & 18)
Ionisation potential values of noble gases decrease down the group with increase in atomic size. Xenon forms binary fluorides by the direct reaction of elements. Identify the correct statement(s) from below.
- A Only the heavier noble gases form such compounds
- B It happens because the noble gases have higher ionisation energies
- C It happens because the compounds are formed with electronegative ligands
- D Octet of electrons provide the stable arrangements
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) It happens because the compounds are formed with electronegative ligands
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Ionisation potential values of noble gases decrease down the group with increase in atomic size. Xenon forms binary fluorides by the direct reaction of elements. The reason is that only the heavier noble gases form such compounds. Octet of electrons provide the stable…
