Ans: C
Na2O is a basic oxide and reacts with water to give NaOH so that its pH is
higher than both SiO2 and P4O10 . Both SiO2 and P4O10 are acidic oxides but SiO2
is insoluble while P4O10 reacts with water to give H 3 PO4 . Thus for P4O10 , pH
when mixed with water is lower than that of SiO2 .

10. Lanthanide contraction is not present between 3d and 4d series.
11. IE1 of N2 is larger than that of O2 because, as per MOT, HOMO of N 2 is a BMO i.e
while that of O2 is an ABMO i.e. t is easier to remove an electron from an

ABMO than to remove and electron from a BMO. Again, as per MOT an electron is
always
removed from the ABMO while it is added to the LUMO. However, if the HOMO is
partly
filled, then the added electron goes to HOMO instead of LUMO. Both in the case of
O2 and
N2, the added electron goes to ABMO and hence the addition lowers the bond order
of O2
from 2 to 1.5 and of N2 from 3 to 2.5. In both the cases, addition of an electron
lowers the
stability of the respective species. But in case O 2, the addition of an electron leads to
lowering of the spin while in case of N 2 the addition raises the spin. Hence, addition
of an

electron to N2 is more energy consuming than that needed for O 2 . So, EA of O2 is
higher
than N2. EA is conventionally measured in terms of energy released.
Electronegativity of an atom is directly proportional to its bond multiplicity.
Because, the higher the bond multiplicity smaller is the size and hence more is the
electronegativity. This is why EN of Carbon atom in different hybrid state is
Both in N2 and CO, the bond order is 3. Still then the bond energy of the two species
differs
because radii of Rather, the correct order of these radii is
(Radii along period always decreases) Therefore, CO is slightly less stable than N 2.
