The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the properties of the hydrides formed by the elements X, Y, and Z based on their electronic configurations, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Elements 1. **Element X**: The electronic configuration is \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^2\). - This indicates it is in the second period and belongs to group 14 (p-block). - Therefore, **Element X is Carbon (C)**. 2. **Element Y**: The electronic configuration is \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^1\). - This indicates it is in the third period and belongs to group 1 (s-block). - Therefore, **Element Y is Sodium (Na)**. 3. **Element Z**: The electronic configuration is \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 3d^{10} 4s^2 4p^5\). - This indicates it is in the fourth period and belongs to group 17 (p-block). - Therefore, **Element Z is Bromine (Br)**. ### Step 2: Identify the Hydrides 1. **Hydride of X (Carbon)**: The hydride formed is **Methane (CH₄)**. 2. **Hydride of Y (Sodium)**: The hydride formed is **Sodium Hydride (NaH)**. 3. **Hydride of Z (Bromine)**: The hydride formed is **Hydrogen Bromide (HBr)**. ### Step 3: Analyze the Properties of the Hydrides 1. **Methane (CH₄)**: - It is a colorless gas. - It is insoluble in water (nonpolar). 2. **Sodium Hydride (NaH)**: - It is a silver-gray solid. - It reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide (NaOH), which is an alkali. 3. **Hydrogen Bromide (HBr)**: - It is a colorless gas. - It forms a strong acid (H₃O⁺) when dissolved in water. ### Step 4: Match Properties with Hydrides Now we will check the given options against the properties identified: 1. **Option 1**: - Hydride of X: Colorless gas, insoluble in H₂O (Correct for CH₄). - Hydride of Y: Silver-gray solid, reacts with H₂O to form an alkali (Correct for NaH). - Hydride of Z: Colorless gas, forms a strong acid in H₂O (Correct for HBr). - **Conclusion**: This option is correct. 2. **Option 2**: - Hydride of X: Colorless liquid, no reaction with water (Incorrect, CH₄ is a gas). - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect. 3. **Option 3**: - Hydride of Y: Silver-gray ionic solid with formula YS₂ (Incorrect, the formula for sodium hydride is NaH). - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect. 4. **Option 4**: - Hydride of Z: Colorless corrosive liquid at STP (Incorrect, HBr is a gas at room temperature). - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect. ### Final Answer The correct set of properties that match with the hydrides of the elements is **Option 1**. ---

To solve the question regarding the properties of the hydrides formed by the elements X, Y, and Z based on their electronic configurations, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Elements 1. **Element X**: The electronic configuration is \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^2\). - This indicates it is in the second period and belongs to group 14 (p-block). - Therefore, **Element X is Carbon (C)**. 2. **Element Y**: The electronic configuration is \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^1\). ...
