The correct Answer is:
To analyze the statements provided in the question, we need to evaluate the truth of each statement regarding phosphorus. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Statement 1:** - Statement 1 claims that "White P is considered as the elemental state of P." - White phosphorus (P4) is indeed one of the forms in which phosphorus exists. It is a molecular form consisting of tetrahedral P4 molecules. Therefore, this statement is **true**. 2. **Understanding Statement 2:** - Statement 2 claims that "White P is the most stable allotropic state of P." - Phosphorus has several allotropes, including white phosphorus, red phosphorus, and black phosphorus. Among these, black phosphorus is known to be the most stable form due to its layered structure and lower reactivity compared to white phosphorus. Therefore, this statement is **false**. 3. **Conclusion:** - Based on the evaluations: - Statement 1 is **true**. - Statement 2 is **false**. - The correct option is that Statement 1 is true and Statement 2 is false. ### Final Answer: - Statement 1 is true, and Statement 2 is false. ---
