Question

Statement 1 : Electronegativity of group 14 elements decreases from Si to Pb.

Statement 2 : Group 14 has metals, metalloids and non-metals.

Options :

  1. Both Statements 1 and 2 are correct

  2. Both Statements 1 and 2 are incorrect

  3. Statement 1 is correct and Statement 2 is incorrect

  4. Statement 1 is incorrect and Statement 2 is correct

Show Answer

Answer :

Statement 1 is incorrect and Statement 2 is correct

Solution :

Electronegativity generally decreases as we move down the group but Pb has higher electronegativity than Sn.
• C ⇒ non-metal
Si and Ge ⇒ metalloids
Sn and Pb ⇒ metals
E.N. of Sn = 1.8, Pb = 1.9
