Assertion: Boron has a smaller first ionisation enthalpy than beryllium. Reason: The penetration of a 2s electron to the nucleus is more than the 2p electron, hence 2p electorn is more shielded by the inner core of electrons than the 2s electrons.

B has a smaller first ionization enthalpy than Be. Consider the following statements (i) it is easier to remove 2p electron than 2s electron (ii) 2p electron of B is more shielded from the nucleus by the inner core of electrons than the 2s electrons of Be (iii) 2s electron has more penetration power than 2p electron (iv) atomic radius of B is more than Be (atomic number B= 5, Be = 4) The correct statements are

Al has a smaller first ionization enthalpy than Mg. Consider the following statements : I. It is easier to remove 3p electron than 3s electron . II . 3p electron of Al is more shielded from the nucleus by the inner coreof electron than the 3s electrons of Mg III. 3s electron hasmore penetration power than 3p electron IV. Atomic radius of Al is more than Mg ( atomic number Al=13, Mg = 12 ) The correct statements are :

np electrons are more penetrating than ns electrons.

Assertion: F atom has a less negative electron affinity than CI atom. Reason: Additional electrons are repelled more effectival by 3p electrons in CI atom than by 2p electrons in F atom.

Assertion (A) :F atom has less electron gain enthalpy than CI^(Theta) atom Reason (R ) : Additional electrons are repelled more effectively by 3p electron in CI atom than by 2p electron in F atom

Assertion: F atom has less negative electron gain enthaply than Cl atom. Reason: Additional electrons are repelled more effectively by 3 p-electrons in Cl than by 2 p-electrons in F atom.

Assertion: Radius of the ion is always smaller than the parent atom. Reason: Ion is formed by the loss or gain of electrons by the parent atom.
