The correct Answer is:
To solve the given question, we need to analyze both statements and determine their validity. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement 1 **Statement 1:** "The sixth period is the longest period in the periodic table." - In the periodic table, the sixth period contains a total of 32 elements. This includes: - 2 elements from the s-block (6s1 and 6s2) - 10 elements from the d-block (5d1 to 5d10) - 14 elements from the f-block (4f1 to 4f14) - 6 elements from the p-block (6p1 to 6p6) Since the sixth period has the highest number of elements compared to other periods, **Statement 1 is true.** ### Step 2: Analyze Statement 2 **Statement 2:** "The sixth period involves the filling of all the orbitals of the sixth energy level." - The sixth period does involve the filling of the 6s, 5d, 4f, and 6p orbitals. However, it does not fill all orbitals of the sixth energy level because: - The 5d and 4f orbitals are from the lower energy levels (n=5 and n=4 respectively). - The sixth energy level (n=6) only includes the 6s and 6p orbitals. Since not all orbitals of the sixth energy level are filled in the sixth period, **Statement 2 is false.** ### Conclusion - Statement 1 is true. - Statement 2 is false. ### Final Answer The correct option is (a): Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is false. ---

To solve the given question, we need to analyze both statements and determine their validity. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement 1 **Statement 1:** "The sixth period is the longest period in the periodic table." - In the periodic table, the sixth period contains a total of 32 elements. This includes: - 2 elements from the s-block (6s1 and 6s2) - 10 elements from the d-block (5d1 to 5d10) ...
