The correct Answer is:
To analyze the given statements and arrange them in order of true and false, we will evaluate each statement one by one. ### Step 1: Evaluate Statement 1 **Statement 1:** HBr is a stronger acid than HI because of hydrogen bonding. - **Analysis:** - HBr and HI are both hydrogen halides. As we move down the group from HF to HI, the bond strength decreases due to the increasing size of the halogen atoms. - HI has a longer bond length and weaker bond strength compared to HBr, which means HI can dissociate more easily in solution, making it a stronger acid. - Therefore, the statement that HBr is stronger than HI due to hydrogen bonding is **false**. ### Step 2: Evaluate Statement 2 **Statement 2:** F⁻ ion has higher hydration energy than Cl⁻. - **Analysis:** - Hydration energy is influenced by the size and charge density of the ion. F⁻ is smaller than Cl⁻, which means it has higher charge density. - The smaller size of F⁻ leads to stronger interactions with water molecules, resulting in higher hydration energy. - Thus, this statement is **true**. ### Step 3: Evaluate Statement 3 **Statement 3:** O₂ is a more powerful oxidizing agent than F₂ because it contains three 'O'. - **Analysis:** - The oxidizing ability of a species is determined by its standard reduction potential (SRP). Fluorine (F₂) has a higher SRP than oxygen (O₂), which means F₂ is a stronger oxidizing agent. - The number of oxygen atoms does not determine the oxidizing power; rather, it is the inherent properties of the molecules. - Therefore, this statement is **false**. ### Step 4: Evaluate Statement 4 **Statement 4:** Fluorine does not form polyhalides. - **Analysis:** - Polyhalides are formed when halogens can utilize their empty d-orbitals to bond with other halogens. However, fluorine has no empty d-orbitals due to its small size and electron configuration. - Therefore, fluorine cannot form polyhalides, making this statement **true**. ### Final Arrangement Now, we can summarize the evaluations: 1. Statement 1: False 2. Statement 2: True 3. Statement 3: False 4. Statement 4: True Thus, the order of true and false statements is: **False, True, False, True (FTFT)**.

To analyze the given statements and arrange them in order of true and false, we will evaluate each statement one by one. ### Step 1: Evaluate Statement 1 **Statement 1:** HBr is a stronger acid than HI because of hydrogen bonding. - **Analysis:** - HBr and HI are both hydrogen halides.
