Given below are two statements : In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. Statement I is true but Statement II is false
  2. Statement I is false but Statement II is true
  3. Both Statement I and Statement II are true
  4. Both Statement I and Statement II are false

Answer

(3) Both Statement I and Statement II are true

Solution

Statement I: Na+ (1s2 2s2 2p6) has a stable noble gas configuration, while Mg+ ([Ne]3s1) loses a 3s electron.

i H2(Na) ≈ 4562 kJ/mol i H2(Mg) ≈ 1451 kJ/mol. True.

Statement II: O2- and F- are isoelectronic (10 electrons); O has the smaller nuclear charge (8 vs 9) O2- (140 pm) is larger than F- (133 pm). True.

Answer: (3)
