JEE Main2009ChemistryClassification of Elements and Periodicity in PropertiesActual
In which of the following arrangements, the sequence is not strictly according to the property written against it ?
Options
- ACO ₂ < SiO ₂ < SnO ₂ < PbO ₂ : increasing oxidising power
- BHF < HCl < HBr < HI : increasing acid strength
- CNH ₃ < PH ₃ < AsH ₃ < SbH ₃ : increasing basic strength
- DB < C < O < N : increasing first ionization enthalpy.
Correct answer
C. NH ₃ < PH ₃ < AsH ₃ < SbH ₃ : increasing basic strength
Step-by-step solution
Correct basic strength is NH ₃> PH ₃> AsH ₃> BiH ₃
