(iii) Element which has largest atomic radius
(iv) Element which forms only acidic oxide

Options

A. V W Y U
B. V X Y W
C. V W Y X
D. V X W U

Explanation

To solve the problem, we need to identify the elements based on their electronic configurations and then determine which element corresponds to each of the statements provided.

### Step 1: Identify the Elements
1. **Element U**: The electronic configuration is `1s² 2s² 2p³`. The atomic number is 7, which corresponds to **Nitrogen (N)**.
2. **Element V**: The electronic configuration is `1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹`. The atomic number is 11, which corresponds to **Sodium (Na)**.
3. **Element W**: The electronic configuration is `1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p²`. The atomic number is 14, which corresponds to **Silicon (Si)**.
4. **Element X**: The electronic configuration is `1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d⁵ 4s²`. The atomic number is 25, which corresponds to **Manganese (Mn)**.
5. **Element Y**: The electronic configuration is `1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶`. The atomic number is 36, which corresponds to **Krypton (Kr)**.

### Step 2: Analyze Each Statement
1. **Element that forms a carbonate which is not decomposed by heating**:
- Sodium (V) forms sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃), which is thermally stable and does not decompose upon heating.
- **Answer: V (Sodium)**

2. **Element which is most likely to form a colored ionic compound**:
- Manganese (X) is a transition metal with partially filled d-orbitals, which allows it to form colored compounds.
- **Answer: X (Manganese)**

3. **Element which has the largest atomic radius**:
- Among the given elements, Krypton (Y) is a noble gas and has the largest atomic radius due to its full valence shell and being in the highest period.
- **Answer: Y (Krypton)**

4. **Element which forms only acidic oxide**:
- Silicon (W) forms silicon dioxide (SiO₂), which is an acidic oxide.
- **Answer: W (Silicon)**

### Step 3: Compile the Answers
Based on the analysis:
- (i) V (Sodium)
- (ii) X (Manganese)
- (iii) Y (Krypton)
- (iv) W (Silicon)

### Final Sequence of Elements
The sequence of elements that satisfy the statements is: **V, X, Y, W**.
