An element 'X' belongs to fourth period and fifteenth group of the Periodic Table. Which one of the following is true ?

Updated On: Jun 7, 2024
  • Partially filled 'd' orbitals and completely filled 's' orbitals.
  • Completely filled 's' orbitals and completely filled 'p' orbitals
  • Completely filled 's' orbitals and half-filled 'p' orbitals
  • Half-filled 'd' orbitals and dompletely filled 's' orbitals

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Since the element 'X' belongs to fourth period and fifteenth group of Periodic Table, its outer electronic configuration is $ 4s^2 \, 4p^3$
Its complete electronic configuration is $ 1s^2, \, 2s^2, \, 2p^6, \, 3s^2 \, 3p^6, \, 4s^2, \, 2d^{ 10}, \, 4p^3 $Hence, its s. orbital is completely filled while p-orbital is half-filled.

Haloalkanes and Haloarenes - Classification

Classification of Haloalkanes and Haloarenes are as follows:

Haloalkanes and Haloarenes are Classified on the Basis of the Number of Halogen Atoms:

These are further classified as mono, di, or polyhalogen (tri-,tetra-, etc.) compounds depending on whether they contain one, two or more halogen atoms in their structures. For example;

  • Monohaloalkane
  • Dihaloalkane
  • Trihaloalkane

Haloalkanes and Haloarenes are Classified on Compounds Containing sp3 C—X Bond (X= F, Cl, Br, I)

This class includes:

  • Alkyl halides or haloalkanes (R—X)
  • Allylic halides
  • Benzylic halides

Haloalkanes and Haloarenes are Classified on Compounds Containing sp2 C—X Bond

This class includes:

  • Vinylic halides
  • Aryl halides
