Q3 / 54 · JEE Advanced 2018 (Paper 1) · Chemistry
Based on the compounds of group 15 elements, the correct statement(s) is (are)
- Correct answerAis more basic than
- Correct answerBis more covalent than
- Correct answerCBoils at lower temperature than
- DThe single bond is stronger than the single bond
Solution
is metallic oxide but is non metallic oxide therefore is basic but is acidic.
In are non metals but is metal but is non metal therefore is more covalent than
In hydrogen bonding is absent but in hydrogen bonding is present therefore boils at lower temperature than
Due to small size in N-N single bond l.p. - l.p. repulsion is more than P-P single bond therefore N-N single bond is weaker than the P-P single bond
In are non metals but is metal but is non metal therefore is more covalent than
In hydrogen bonding is absent but in hydrogen bonding is present therefore boils at lower temperature than
Due to small size in N-N single bond l.p. - l.p. repulsion is more than P-P single bond therefore N-N single bond is weaker than the P-P single bond
Hence, the correct answer is options: 'A', 'B', 'C'.
