The electronic structure of four element...

The electronic structure of four elements `A,B, C, D` are
(a) `1s^(2)` (b) `1s^(2), 2s^(2), 2p^(2)`
( c) `1s^(2), 2s^(2), 2p^(5)` (d) `1s^(2), 2s^(2) 2p^(6)`
The tendency to form electrovalent bond is largest in

A

A

B

B

C

C

D

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Element C has electronic structure `1s^(2),2s^(2)2p^(5)`, it requires only one electron to complete its octet and it will form anion so it will form electrovalent bond.
