13 Assertion (A): Boron has a smaller first ionisation enthalpy than beryllium.
Reason (R): The penetration of the 2s electron to the nucleus is more than the 2p electron; therefore, the
2p electron is more shielded by the inner core of the electron than 2s electrons.
(a) Assertion is correct, reason is correct; reason is a correct explanation for assertion.
(b) Assertion is correct, reason is correct; reason is not a correct explanation for assertion.
(c) Assertion is correct, reason is incorrect.
(d) Assertion is incorrect, reason is correct.

15 Assertion (A): Electron gain enthalpy becomes less negative as we go down a group.
Reason (R): The size of the atom decreases on going down the group, and the added electron would be
more closer to the nucleus.
(a) Assertion is correct, reason is correct; reason is a correct explanation for assertion.
(b) Assertion is correct, reason is correct; reason is not a correct explanation for assertion.
(c) Assertion is correct, reason is incorrect.
(d) Assertion is incorrect, reason is correct.
16 Explain why the electron gain enthalpy of the elemental fluorine is less negative than the elemental
chlorine.
17 Define the ionisation enthalpy. Discuss the factors affecting ionisation enthalpy of elements and their
trends in the periodic table.
20 How will you explain that the first ionisation enthalpy of sodium is quite lower than that of magnesium;
however, its second ionisation enthalpy is quite higher than that of magnesium?
22 Arrange the following elements N, P, O and S in the order of increasing first ionisation enthalpy and
explain.
23 In terms of the period and group and block, where would you locate the element with Z =116?
25 In the modern periodic table, elements are arranged in order of their increasing atomic number related to
the electronic configuration. Depending upon the type of the orbitals that receive the last electron, the
periodic table elements are categorised into four blocks, viz, s, p, d and f. The modern periodic table has
7 periods and 18 groups. Each period starts with the filling of the new energy shell. By the Aufbau
principle, the seven periods (1 to 7) contain 2, 8, 8, 18, 18, 32 and 32 elements, respectively. The
seventh period is still incomplete. To avoid today’s periodic table being too long, the two series of the f-
block elements, called lanthanoids and actinoids, are placed at the bottom of the main body of today’s
periodic table.
(a) The element having the atomic number 57 belongs to which group, period and the block.
(b) Representative belong to which blocks?
(c) In the modern periodic table, What does the period indicates?
(d) write the general outer electronic configuration of
(i) d-block elements. (ii) f-block elements.

26 How many groups and periods are there in the modern periodic table? How do the atomic size and
metallic character of elements vary as we move:
(a) down a group?
(b) from left to right in a period?
27 State any two limitations to Mendeleev’s classification. How does electronic configuration of atoms
change in period with increase in atomic number?
29 Illustrate by taking examples of transition elements and non-transition elements that oxidation states of
elements are largely based on electronic configuration.
30 Discuss the factors affecting electron gain enthalpy and the trend in its variation in the periodic table.
31 What are the advantages of the long form of periodic table over Mendeleev’s periodic table? Explain
with examples.
32 Write the outer electronic configuration of alkali metals and justify their position in the periodic table.
33 Justify giving suitable examples— “The Properties of the elements are a periodic function of their
atomic numbers”.
34 Discuss and compare the trend in ionisation enthalpy of the elements of group 1 with those of group 17
elements.
35 p-Block elements can form acidic, basic and amphoteric oxides. Explain each by giving one example
and write the reactions of these oxides with water.
