MCQ
Select the correct statement regardings sulphur :-
  • A
    At high temperature it's paramagnetic
  • B
    $S-S$ has less bond energy than $O-O$ bond
  • C
    Sulphur exist in $S_8$ form and it has cage like structure.
  • Size of sulphur is greater than oxygen so, it (sulphur) has less electron a affinity than oxygen.

Answer

Correct option: D.
Size of sulphur is greater than oxygen so, it (sulphur) has less electron a affinity than oxygen.
