Assertion : Compounds of ions having an ionic radius of 116 pm are move covalent in character
than those of ions with almost identical size (114 pm) and the same charge.
Reason : For two ions of the same size and charge, one with an (n-1) electronic configuration
will be more polarizing than a cation with an (n-1) (n-1) electronic configuration.
Assertion : In tetrahedral hybridisation i.e., in hybridisation all p-orbitals are involved and no
p-orbital is left for coming with -bonds.
Reason : Central atom can not form double bonds in the molecules or species having hybridisation.
Assertion : F bond angle P = bond angle Q but not precisely
Reason : The molecule is slight bent T-shaped and there is repulsion between lone pairs of electrons.
Assertion : is planar at each nitrogen atom.
Reason : the bond angle is and both the bond lengths are not equal.
Assertion : Carbon has unique ability to form multiple bonds with itself and with other
atoms of small size and high electronegativity.
Reason : Heavier elements of group do not form multiple bonds with itself because
their atomic orbitals are too large and diffuse to have effective overlapping.
Assertion : and both have same bond order and magnetism
Reason : and are isoelectornic species.
Assertion : Crystals of hydrated calcium sulphate are soft and easily cleaved.
Reason : Crystals of anhydrous calcium sulphate are very hard and very difficult
to cleave.
When two atoms combine to form a molecule, energy is:
1. | Released. | 2. | Absorbed. |
3. | Neither released nor absorbed. | 4. | Either released or absorbed. |
