The correct Answer is:
To determine the truthfulness of the statements provided in the question, we will analyze each statement step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement A **Statement A:** Ionic mobility is highest for `I^(-)` in water as compared to other halides. - **Explanation:** Ionic mobility refers to the ability of an ion to move through a solvent. The ionic mobility is influenced by the size of the ion and its hydration. - Iodide ion (`I^(-)`) is larger than bromide (`Br^(-)`), chloride (`Cl^(-)`), and fluoride (`F^(-)`). - The smaller the ion, the greater the hydration energy, which means the ion is surrounded by more water molecules and experiences more resistance to movement. - Therefore, since `I^(-)` is the largest ion among the halides, it has the least hydration and thus the highest ionic mobility. **Conclusion:** Statement A is **True (T)**. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement B **Statement B:** `IF_(5)` is square pyramidal and `IF_(7)` is pentagonal bipyramidal in shape. - **Explanation for `IF_(5)`:** - The central iodine atom has 5 fluorine atoms bonded to it and one lone pair of electrons. - This results in a total of 6 electron pairs (5 bond pairs + 1 lone pair). - The geometry is octahedral, but the shape is square pyramidal due to the presence of the lone pair. - **Explanation for `IF_(7)`:** - The central iodine atom has 7 fluorine atoms bonded to it and no lone pairs. - This results in a total of 7 bond pairs. - The shape of `IF_(7)` is indeed pentagonal bipyramidal. **Conclusion:** Statement B is **True (T)**. ### Step 3: Analyze Statement C **Statement C:** Reactivity order is `F_(2) < Cl_(2) < Br_(2) < I_(2)`. - **Explanation:** Reactivity of halogens generally increases as you move up the group in the periodic table. - Fluorine (`F2`) is the most reactive halogen due to its high electronegativity and ability to attract electrons. - The correct order of reactivity should be `F2 > Cl2 > Br2 > I2`. **Conclusion:** Statement C is **False (F)**. ### Step 4: Analyze Statement D **Statement D:** Oxidising power order is `F_(2) < Cl_(2) < Br_(2) < I_(2)`. - **Explanation:** The oxidizing power of halogens decreases down the group. - Fluorine is the strongest oxidizing agent, followed by chlorine, bromine, and iodine. - Therefore, the correct order of oxidizing power should be `F2 > Cl2 > Br2 > I2`. **Conclusion:** Statement D is **False (F)**. ### Final Summary - **A:** True (T) - **B:** True (T) - **C:** False (F) - **D:** False (F) ### Final Answer The correct combination of true (T) and false (F) options is: **TTFF**. ---
