Which of the following order is wrong?

Multiple Choice Options

  • A NH3<PH3<AsH3NH_3<PH_3<AsH_3 - acidic
  • B Li<Be<B<CLi<Be<B<C - 1st IP
  • C Al2O3<MgO<Na2O<K2OAl_2O_3<MgO<Na_2O<K_2O - basic
  • D Li+<Na+<K+<Cs+Li^+<Na^+<K^+<Cs^+ - ionic radius.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Along the period, I.P. generally increases but not regularly. Be and B are exceptions. First I.P. increases in moving from left to right in a period, but I.P. of B is lower than Be. As in case of boron, 2p 1 electron have to be removed to get B + (1s 2 2s 2 ) from B(1s 2 2s 2 2p 1 ), while in case of Be (1s 2 2s 2 ) electron have to be removed to get Be + (1s 2 2s 1 ). p electron can be removed more easily than s electron so the energy required to remove electron will be less in case of boron.
