JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2024 - 31st January Evening Shift - No. 15)

Consider the following elements.

JEE Main 2024 (Online) 31st January Evening Shift Chemistry - Periodic Table & Periodicity Question 38 English

Which of the following is/are true about $$\mathrm{A}^{\prime}, \mathrm{B}^{\prime}, \mathrm{C}^{\prime}$$ and $$\mathrm{D}^{\prime}$$ ?

A. Order of atomic radii: $$\mathrm{B}^{\prime}<\mathrm{A}^{\prime}<\mathrm{D}^{\prime}<\mathrm{C}^{\prime}$$

B. Order of metallic character: $$\mathrm{B}^{\prime}<\mathrm{A}^{\prime}<\mathrm{D}^{\prime}<\mathrm{C}^{\prime}$$

C. Size of the element: $$\mathrm{D}^{\prime}<\mathrm{C}^{\prime}<\mathrm{B}^{\prime}<\mathrm{A}^{\prime}$$

D. Order of ionic radii: $$\mathrm{B}^{\prime+}<\mathrm{A}^{1^{+}}<\mathrm{D}^{\prime+}<\mathrm{C}^{+}$$

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

A only
B, C and D only
A and B only
A, B and D only

Explanation

In general along the period from left to right, size decreases and metallic character decrease.

In general down the group, size increases and metallic character increases.

$$\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{B}^{\prime}<\mathrm{A}^{\prime}(\text { size }) \quad \mathrm{C}^{\prime}>\mathrm{A}^{\prime}(\text { size }) \\ & \mathrm{D}^{\prime}<\mathrm{C}^{\prime}(\text { size }) \quad \mathrm{D}^{\prime}>\mathrm{B}^{\prime}(\text { size }) \\ & \mathrm{B}^{\prime}<\mathrm{A}^{\prime}(\text { metallic character }) \\ & \mathrm{D}^{\prime}<\mathrm{C}^{\prime}(\text { metallic character }) \\ & \mathrm{B}^{\prime+}<\mathrm{A}^{\prime+}(\text { size }) \\ & \mathrm{D}^{\prime+}<\mathrm{C}^{\prime+}(\text { size }) \\ & \therefore \text { C statement is incorrect. } \end{aligned}$$
