Maximum chemical reactivity

B

Maximum electronrgativity and diferent configurations

C

Small size,'large charge/radius ratio

D

Tendency to form multiple bonds.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Nitrogen forms the largest number of oxides as it is capable of forming stable multiple bonds with oxygen. They range of N_(2)O (O.S of nitrogen +1) through NO, N_(2)O_(3),NO_(2),N_(2)O_(4) "to" N_(2)O_(5) (O.S of nitrogen +5). Following points are improtant regarding the study of oxides of nitrogen. (a) All oxides of nitrogen expect N_(2)O_(5) are endothermic as a large amount of energy is required to dissociate the stable molecule of oxygen and nitrogen. (b) The small electronegativity difference between oxygen and nitrogen make N-O bond easily breakle to give oxygen and hence oxides of nitrogen are said to be better oxidising agents. (c) Expect N_(2)O_(5) , all are gases at ordinary temperature. N_(2)O_(3) is stable only at lower temperature (253K). (d) Expect N_(2)O and NO which are neutal oxides, all are acidic oxides which dissolve in water forming coresponding oxy acids. (e) They are also good example for illustrating the concept of resonance. The gas which is acidic in nature is :

The first element of group different form its congeners, i.e. other members of the group in many ways. These differences may be due to the following: i. Small size of atom and ion. ii. High electronegativity. iii. Non-availability of low lying d-orbitals. The first element of a group shows resemblance with the second element of the adjacent group on the right. This is known as diagonal relationship. Lithium exhibits many physical and chemical similarites with magnesium. The reason is:

Na, Mg and Al are the elements of the 3^(rd) period of the Modern Periodic Table having group number 1, 2 and 13 respectively . Which one of these has the (a) highest valency (b) largest atomic radius, and (c ) maximum chemical reactivity? Justify your answer stating the reason for each.

(a) Electropositive nature of the element(s) increases down the group and decreases across the period (b) Electronegativity of the element decreases down the group and increases across the period (c) Atomic size increase down the group and decreases across a period (left to right) (d) Metallic character increases down the group and decreases across a period On the basis of the above trends of the periodic table, answer the following about the electron with atomic number 3 to 9 (a) Name the most electropositive element among them (b) Name the most electronegative element (c) Name of the element with smallest atomic size (d) Name the element which is a metalloid (e) Name the element which shows maximum valency.

The IUPAC definition of a transition element is that it is an element that has an incomplete d-subshell in either the neutral atom or its ion. Thus the group 12 elements are member of the d-block but are not transition elements. Chemically solft members of the d-block occurs as sulphide minerals and are partially oxidised to obtain the metal, the more electropositive 'hard' metals occurs as oxides and are extracted by reduction. Opposite to p-block elements, the higher oxidation states are favoured by the heavier elements of d-block Metals on the right of the d-block tend to exist in low oxidation states and form complexes with the ligands. Square-planar complexes are common for the platinum metals and gold in oxidation states that yield d^8 electronic configuration, which include RH(I),Ir(I),Pd(II),Pt(II) and Au(III). The most distinctive features/properties of transition metal complex is their wide range of colours.The crystal field theory attributes the colour of the coordination compounds to d-d transition of the electron.It is important to note that (a) in absence of ligand, crystal field spilling does not occur and hence the substances is colourless, (b) the type of ligand also influences the colour of the complexes. Which of the following has dsp^2 hybridisation and is diamagnetic in nature ? (i) Na_4[Cr(CO)_4] , (ii) [Ni(DMGH)_2] , (iii) [PtHBr(PEt_3)_2] (iv) [As(SCN)_4]^(3-) , (v) [AuBr_4]^(-)
