MCQ
The electronic structure of four elements $A, B, C, D$ are
  • A
    $1{s^2}$
  • B
    $1{s^2},\,\,2{s^2}\,2{p^2}$
  • $1{s^2},\,\,2{s^2}\,2{p^5}$
  • D
    $1{s^2},\,\,2{s^2}\,2{p^6}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$1{s^2},\,\,2{s^2}\,2{p^5}$
(c) Element $C$ has electronic structure $1{s^2},\,\,2{s^2}2{p^5}$, it requires only one electron to complete its octet and it will form anion so it will form electrovalent bond.
