Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 122
Question: The electronic structure of four elements A, B, C, D are (i) $ 1s^{2} $ (ii) $ 1s^{2},2s^{2},2p^{2} $ (iii) $ 1s^{2},2s^{2},2p^{5} $ (iv) $ 1s^{2},2s^{2},2p^{6} $ The tendency to form electrovalent bond is largest in [MNR 1987, 95]
Options:
A) A
B) B
C) C
D) D
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
Element C has electronic structure $ 1s^{2},2s^{2}2p^{5} $ , it requires only one electron to complete its octet and it will form anion so it will form electrovalent bond.
