What is the atomic number of the element with the maximum number of unpaired 4p electron?
The electronic configuration is given as follows:
Observation of the above given 4 E.C. tells us that the element having atomic number 33 will have the maximum number of unpaired electrons i.e. 3.
The electronic configuration of four elements are:
(I) [Kr]5s1
(II) [Rn]5f146d17s2
(III) [Ar]3d104s24p5
(IV) [Ar]3d64s2

(i) I shows variable oxidation state.
(ii) II is a d-block element.
(iii) The compound formed between I and III is covalent.
(iv) IV shows single oxidation state.
Which statement is True(T) or False (F)?

If period number and group number of any representative element(s) are same then which of the following statement is incorrect regarding such type element(s) in their ground state: (Period number and group number are according to modern form of periodic table)
When the period and group is the same, it can only be for Hydrogen(1s1) and Beryllium(1s2 2s2). Then:
Principal quantum number (n) = 2,
Azimuthal quantum number (l) = 0,
Magnetic quantum number (m) = 0,
Spin quantum number (s) = +1 / 2 or -1 / 2.

True increasing order of acidity of the oxides of Mn is:
With increasing (+)ve oxidation state, acidity increases.
The set representing the correct order of ionic radius is:
In general, the ionic radius increases on moving from top to bottom in the group and decreases on moving from left to right in a period.
The ionic radius of the following elements are:
Na+: 1.02 Ao
Be2+: 0.39 Ao
Mg2+: 0.72 Ao

12Mg2+< 11Na+< 9F-< 8O2-< 7N3-
For isoelectronic species, lower the nuclear charge higher the radius.
The order of increasing ionic radius of the following is:
If the ionic radii of K+ and F– are nearly the same (i.,e. 1.34 Å), then the atomic radii of K and F respectively are:
