8. Nitrogen has the electronic configuration 1s22s22px12py12pz1 and not 1s22s22px22py12pz0 which
is determined by
(a) Pauli’s exclusion principle (b) Aufbau principle
(c) Hund’s rule (d) uncertainty principle
9. The electronic configuration of Cu+2 ion is
10. Assertion: Half-filled and fully-filled degenerate set of orbitals acquire extra stability.
Reason: The reason for the above fact is the symmetry of such orbitals.
11. Assertion: s-orbital electron will be more tightly bound to the nucleus than p-orbital electron.
Reason: Zeff experienced by the electron decreases with increase of azimuthal quantum number

(a) Period 4, group 6 (b) Period 6, group 4
(c) Period 3, group 1 (d) Period 4, group 5

5. Identify the wrong statement in the following:
(a) Atomic radius of the elements increases as one moves down the first group of the periodic table
(b) Atomic radius of the elements decreases as one moves across from left to right in the 2nd period
of the periodic table
(c) Amongst isoelectronic species, smaller the positive charge on the cation, smaller is the ionic
radius
(d) Amongst isoelectronic species, greater the negative charge on the anion, larger is the ionic
radius.
6. Which of the following represents the correct order of increasing electron gain enthalpy with

(a) As2O3 (b) CO2 (c) SiO2 (d) CaO
8. Match Column I with Column II and select the correct answer using given codes

9. Assertion: The atomic and ionic radii generally decrease towards right in a period.
Reason: The ionisation enthalpy decreases on moving towards left in a period.
10. Assertion: Electron gain enthalpy becomes less negative as we go down a group.
Reason: Size of the atom increases on going down the group and the added electron would be
farther from the nucleus.
