Based on the compounds of group 15 elements, the correct statement(s) is (are)

Options

  1. ABi2O5B{i}_{2}{O}_{5} is more basic than N2O5{N}_{2}{O}_{5}
  2. BNF3N{F}_{3} is more covalent than BiF3Bi{F}_{3}
  3. CPH3P{H}_{3} Boils at lower temperature than NH3N{H}_{3}
  4. DThe N−NN - N single bond is stronger than the P−PP - P single bond

Correct answer

A. Bi2O5B{i}_{2}{O}_{5} is more basic than N2O5{N}_{2}{O}_{5}

Step-by-step solution

(A)( A ) Bi2O5B{i}_{2}{O}_{5} is metallic oxide but N2O5{N}_{2}{O}_{5} is non metallic oxide therefore Bi2O5B{i}_{2}{O}_{5} is basic but N2O5{N}_{2}{O}_{5} is acidic.
(B)( B ) In NF3,NandFN{F}_{3}, NandF are non metals but BiF3,BiBi{F}_{3}, Bi is metal but FF is non metal therefore NF3N{F}_{3} is more covalent than BiF3Bi{F}_{3}
(C)( C ) In PH3P{H}_{3} hydrogen bonding is absent but in NH3N{H}_{3} hydrogen bonding is present therefore PH3P{H}_{3} boils at lower temperature than NH3N{H}_{3}
(D)( D ) Due to small size in N-N single bond l.p. - l.p. repulsion is more than P-P single bond therefore N-N single bond is weaker than the P-P single bond
