The halogen elements show great resemblances to one another in their chemical behaviour and properties of their compounds with other elements. There is, however, a progressive change in properties from F through $Cl, Br,$ and I to At. F is most reactive among the halogens and in fact, from all other elements and it has certain other properties that set it apart from the other halogens.

  1. Assertion and reason both are correct statements and reason is correct explanation for assertion.
  2. Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation for assertion.
  3. Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.
  4. Assertion is wrong statement but reason is correct statement.

Reason: $F_2$ has low bond dissociation enthalpy.
  1. Assertion: The bond between $F - F$ is weaker than between $Cl - Cl.$
Reason: Atomic size of $F$ is smaller than that of $Cl.$
  1. Assertion: Fluoride does not show oxidation number greater than zero.
Reason: The halogens chlorine, bromine and iodine can show positive oxidation state of $+1, +3$ and $+7.$
  1. Assertion: F atom has less negative electron affinity than Cl atom.
Reason: Additional electrons are repelled more effectively by $3p-$electrons in $Cl$ than by $2p-$electrons in Fatom.

Reason: It displaces other halogens from its aqueous solution.

Answer

  1. (a) Assertion and reason both are correct statements and reason is correct explanation for assertion.
Explanation:

Fluorine is most electronegative element and has low bond dissociation enthalpy.
  1. (a) Assertion and reason both are correct statements and reason is correct explanation for assertion.
Explanation:

In $F - F$ bond, due to smaller size of fluorine, $e^- - e^-$ repulsion occur, so its bond strength is less.
  1. (b) Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation for assertion.
Explanation:

Fluorine is most electronegative element and can not exhibit any $+ve$ oxidation state. Other halogens have vacant $d-$orbitals.
  1. (c) Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.
Explanation:

Additional electrons are repelled more effectively by $2$p-electrons in F than by $3$p-electrons in Cl atom.
  1. (b) Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation for assertion.
Explanation:

The electrode potential of $F_2$ is maximum while that of $I_2$ is minimum.

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
The unique behaviour of $Cu, $ having a positive $E^\circ$ accounts for its inability to liberate $H_2$ from acids. Only oxidising acids (nitric and hot concentrated sulphuric acid) react with $Cu,$ the acids being reduced. The stability of the half-filled $(d^5)$ subshell in $Mn^{2+}$ and the completely filled $(d^{10})$ configuration in $Zn^{2+}$ are related to their $\text{E}^\circ\frac{\text{M}^{3+}}{\text{M}^{2+}}$ values. The low value for Sc reflects the stability of $Sc^{3+}$ which has a noble gas configuration. The comparatively high value for Mn shows that $Mn^{2+}(d^5)$ is particularly stable, whereas a comparatively low value for Fe shows the extra stability of $Fe^{3+}(d^5)$. The comparatively low value for Vis related to the stability of $v^{2+} ($half-filled $t_{2g}$ level$)$.

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
When a solution of an et-amino acid is placed in an electric field depending on the pH of the medium, following three cases may happen.
  1. In alkaline solution, CL-amino acids exist as anion II, and there is a net migration of amino acid towards the anode.
  2. In acidic solution, a-amino acids exist as cation III, and there is a net migration of amino acid towards the cathode.
  3. If II and III are exactly balanced there is no net migration; under such conditions any one molecule exists as a positive ion and as a negative ion for exactly the same amount of time, and any small movement in the direction of one electrode is subsequently cancelled by an equal movement back toward the other electrode. The pH of the solution in which a particular amino acid does not migrate under the influence of an electric field is called the is oelectric point of that amino acid.

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions: Williamson's synthesis is used for the preparation of symmetrical as well as unsymmerical ether. It is $S_N2$ reaction mechanism.
