Given below are two statements : Statement ((\mathbf{I})): The radii of isoelectronic species increases in the order. (\mathrm{Mg}^{2+} \lt \mathrm{Na}^{+} \lt \mathrm{F}^{-} \lt \mathrm{O}^{2-}) Statement (II): The magnitude of electron gain enthalpy of halogen decreases in the order. (\mathrm{Cl}\gt\mathrm{F}\gt\mathrm{Br}\gtI\mathrm{I}) In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

Options

  1. AStatement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
  2. BStatement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
  3. CBoth Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
  4. DBoth Statement I and Statement II are correct

Correct answer

D. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct

Step-by-step solution

r∝q−\mathrm{r} \propto \mathrm{q}^{-}(for isoelectronic species) ∝1q+\propto \frac{1}{q^{+}} ∴\therefore Statement I is correct Magnitude of electron gain enthalpy Cl>F>Br>I\mathrm{Cl}>\mathrm{F}>\mathrm{Br}>\mathrm{I}
