NEET Chemistry (general) Match the Following Question

Type: Match the Following-match the column-Hard-Class 12

Match Column-I with Column-II.

Column-I Column-II (a) Noble gases (i) Strong oxidizing agent (b) Fluorine (ii) Halic (VII) acid (c) Chlorine (iii) Inertness due to filled orbitals (d) Iodine (iv) Oxidation states of +1, +3, +5, +7

Choose the correct matching:

A

a-iii, b-i, c-iv, d-ii

B

a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii

C

a-iii, b-ii, c-i, d-iv

D

a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Noble gases are least reactive due to their filled ns² np⁶ electronic configuration, making them inert (a-iii). Fluorine is known for being a strong oxidizing agent (b-i). Chlorine exhibits multiple oxidation states including +1, +3, +5, and +7 (c-iv). Iodine does not correspond to halic (VII) acid, which is for chlorine (d-ii).
