MCQ
The statement that is not correct for periodic classification of elements is:
  • A
    The properties of elements are periodic function of their atomic numbers.
  • B
    Non metallic elements are less in number than metallic elements.
  • C
    For transition elements, the 3d-orbitals are filled with electrons after 3p orbitals and before 4s-orbitals.
  • D
    The first ionisation enthalpies of elements generally increase with increase in atomic number as we go along a period.

Answer

  1. For transition elements, the 3d-orbitals are filled with electrons after 3p orbitals and before 4s-orbitals.

Explanation:

For transition elements, the 3d-orbitals are filled with electrons after 3p and 4s-orbitals and before 4p-orbitals.

The order of filling the orbitals is.

Is, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5p, 6s, …
