1 (c)
CaO is basic oxide.
2 (b)
Be in BeF― 2
3 is 𝑠𝑝 -hybridized .
3 (a)
2 1
3Li ― 1𝑠 2𝑠 donates one electron easily
4 (b)
Ionization energy increases along the period and decreases down the group. Also (b) has
[Ne] 3𝑠2,3𝑝3,𝑖.𝑒., half filled configuration, being more stable and thus, have high ionization
energy
5 (c)
Carbon cannot accept 6Cl―, since it has no vacant 𝑑-orbitals.
6 (d)
BCl3 has 𝑠𝑝2-hybridization. Rest all have 𝑠𝑝3-hybridization having one lone pair of electron
and thus, pyramidal in nature.
7 (c)
Both NH3 and H2O have 𝑠𝑝3-hybridization. CO2 and BeCl2 are linear (𝑠𝑝-hybridization)
8 (d)
The bond angles in 𝑠𝑝3,𝑠𝑝2 and 𝑠𝑝-hybridization are 109°,120° and 180° respectively.
9 (a)
B.p. of H2 is minimum.
10 (b)
𝑒.𝑔., BF3.
11 (a)
𝑠-orbitals never go for lateral overlapping because of non-directional nature.
12 (c)
H2O possesses the tendency for H ― bonding.
13 (d)
It is a reason for given fact.
14 (c)
It is a fact.
15 (b)
Rest all either has incomplete (BF3,BeF2) octer or expanded octet (ClO2).
16 (a)
Bond energy increases with increase in bond order.
17 (b)
Electron affinity is defined as, “The energy released when an extra electron is added to a
neutral gaseous atom.”
Electron affinity of F=332.6 kJ/mol
Electron affinity of Cl=348.5 kJ/mol
Electron affinity of S=200.7 kJ/mol
Electron affinity of O=140.9 kJ/mol
Highest electron affinity among fluorine, chlorine, sulphur and oxygen, is of chlorine.
The low value of electron affinity of fluorine than chlorine is probably due to small size of
fluorine atom i.e., electron density is high which hinders the addition of an extra electron.
18 (b)
Bond order for O2 = 2 and for O+ 2 = 2.5
Both are paramagnetic (O2 has 2 unpaired electron, O+ 2 has one unpaired electron).
19 (d)
Bond order for H― 2 = +1/2.
20 (c)
S in SCl4 is 𝑠𝑝3𝑑-hybridized and possesses see-saw structure whereas SiCl4 is tetrahedral.
