(3) N3-, O2-, F-, S2- (4) Li+, Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+ O(g) + e- = O- (g) ;  Ho = - 142 kJ mol-1
39. The ionic mobility of alkali metal ions in aqueous O-(g) + e- = O2- (g) ;  Ho = 844 kJ mol-1
solution is maximum for This is because
(1) K + (2) Rb + (1) oxygen is more electronegative
(3) Li + (4) Na + (2) oxygen has high electron affinity
40. The increasing order of the first ionisation (3) O- ion will tend to resist the addition of another
enthalpies of the elements B, P, S and F (lowest first) is electron
(1) F < S < P < B (2) P < S < B < F (4) O- ion has comparatively larger size than oxygen
(3) B < P < S < F (4) B < S < P < F atom
41. Following statements regarding the periodic 45. Which among the following factors is the most
trends of chemical reactivity of the alkali metals and important in making fluorine the strongest oxidising
the halogens are given. Which of these statements give agent?
the correct picture? (1) Electron affinity
(1) The reactivity decreases in the alkali metals but (2) Ionisation enthalpy
increases in the halogens with increase in atomic (3) Hydration enthalpy
number down the group (4) Bond dissociation energy
(2) In both the alkali metals and the halogens the
chemical reactivity decreases with increase in atomic
number down the group
(3) Chemical reactivity increases with increase in
atomic number down the group in both the alkali
metals and halogens
(4) In alkali metals, the reactivity increases but in the
halogens it decreases with increase in atomic number
down the group
42. In which of the following arrangements the order is
not according to the property indicated against it?
(1) Li < Na < K < Rb Increasing metallic radius
(2) I < Br < F < Cl Increasing electron gain enthalpy
(with negative sign)
(3) B < C < N < O Increasing first ionisation enthalpy
(4) Al3+ < Mg2+ < Na+ < F- Increasing ionic size
43. Based on lattice energy and other considerations
which one of the following alkali metal chlorides is
expected to have the highest melting point?
(1) RbCl (2) KCl
(3) NaCl (4) LiCl
