MCQ
Find the odd one out.
  • A
    Chlorine
  • Sodium
  • C
    Oxygen
  • D
    Helium

Answer

Correct option: B.
Sodium

In this, sodium is the odd one out because, sodium, being an alkali metal, is photosensitive while the others are not photosensitive materials. Sodium metal emits electrons even when ordinary light falls on it. Therefore, it is known as a photosensitive material.
