MCQ
Which of the following statements is correct
  • ${X^ - }$ ion is larger in size than $X$ atom
  • B
    ${X^ + }$ ion is larger in size than $X$ atom
  • C
    ${X^ + }$ ion is larger in size than ${X^ - }$ ion
  • D
    ${X^ + }$ and ${X^ - }$ ions are equal in size

Answer

Correct option: A.
${X^ - }$ ion is larger in size than $X$ atom
a
(a)${X^ - }$ ion larger in size than $X$ atoms. Because of low effective nuclear charge on ${X^ - }$ has a bigger size.

Given below are two statements:

Statement $I$ : The boiling point of three isomeric pentanes follows the order

n-pentane $>$ isopentane $>$ neopentane

Statement $II$ : When branching increases, the molecule attains a shape of sphere. This results in smaller surface area for contact, due to which the intermolecular forces between the spherical molecules are weak, thereby lowering the boiling point.
