MCQ 11 Mark
Electronegativity of inert gases is :
  • A
    low
  • B
    high
  • ✓
    zero
  • D
    abnormally high
Answer
Correct option: C.
zero
Electronegativity of inert gases is zero as they have no tendency to attract the shared e$^-$.
Since the noble gases already have eight electrons in their outer shells, they don't want to attract any more.
Since electronegativity measures the amount of attraction between an atom and an electron, noble gases do not have electronegativity.

The anomalous behaviour of nitrogen is due to:
  • A
    Small size and high electronegativity.
  • B
    Non availability of $d-$orbitals in valency shell.
  • C
    Ease of multiple bond formation.
  • ✓
    All are correct.
Answer
Correct option: D.
All are correct.
Nitrogen differs from other members of the group due to its smaller size, high electronegativity, high $IE$ and non availability of $d-$orbitals. Nitrogen has unique ability to form $\text{p}\pi-\text{p}\pi$ multiple bonds with itself and with other elements having small size and high electronegativity.
