The atomic numbers of elements A, B, C and D are Z - 1; Z; Z + 1 and Z + 2, respectively. If 'B' is a noble gas, choose the correct answers from the following statements-

1) 'A' has higher electron affinity.

(2) 'C' exists in +2 oxidation state. 

(3) 'D' is an alkaline earth metal.

  • (1) and (2)

  • (2) and (3)

  • (1) and (3)

  • (1), (2) and (3)


C.

(1) and (3)

Given, 

Atomic number of element B = Z   ( Noble gas; Belongs to zero group)

Atomic number of element A = Z - 1 (i.e. halogens)

Atomic number of element C = Z + 1 (i.e. Group IA)

Atomic number of element D = Z + 2 (i.e. Group IIA)

Since, element B is a noble gas.

 Element A must be a halogen i.e. have highest electron affinity and

Element C must be an alkali metal and exists in +1 oxidation state and 

Element D must be an alkaline earth metal with +2 oxidation state.
