Identify the wrong statement in the following.
Amongst isoelectronic species, smaller the positive charge on the cation, smaller is the ionic radius
Amongst isoelectronic species, greater the negative charge on the anion, larger is the ionic radius
Atomic radius of the elements increases as one moves down the first group of the periodic table
Atomic radius of the elements increases as one moves down the first group of the periodic table
A.
Amongst isoelectronic species, smaller the positive charge on the cation, smaller is the ionic radius
The Atomic radius of the elements decreases across a period from left to right due to increasing in effective nuclear charge. On moving down a group, since, a number of shells increases, so atomic radius increases. Amongst isoelectronic species, ionic radius increases with increases in negative charge or decrease in positive charge.
pA and pB are the vapour pressure of pure liquid components, A and B, respectively of and ideal binary solution. If xA represents the mole fraction of component A, the total pressure of the solution will be
pA + xA(pB-pA)
pA + xA(pA-pB)
pB + xA(pB-pA)
pB + xA(pB-pA)
