Highly selective Backlog Qs for JEE MainChemistryClassification of Elements and Periodicity in Properties
Consider the following four elements, which are represented according to long form of periodic table Here W , Y and Z are left, up and right elements with respect to the element ‘ X ’ and ‘ X ’ belongs to 16 t h group and 3 r d period. Then according to given information the incorrect statement regarding given elements is
Options
- AMaximum electronegativity : Y
- BMaximum catenation property : X
- CMaximum electron affinity : Z
- DY exhibits variable covalency
Correct answer
D. Y exhibits variable covalency
Step-by-step solution
W : Phosphorus Electronegativity : O > C l > S > P Electron Affinity : C l > S > O > P Y : Oxygen X : Sulphur Catenation : S > P > O > C l Z : Chlorine Oxygen exhibits covalency of two only
