- A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
- A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
- A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
- A-II, B-I, C-III, D-IV
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
To correctly match List I with List II, let's analyze each item:
A. Chlorophyll: - Chlorophyll contains magnesium (\( \text{Mg}^{2+} \)) as its central metal ion. - Match: A – III (\( \text{Mg}^{2+} \)).
B. Soda ash: - Soda ash is chemically sodium carbonate (\( \text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 \)). - Match: B – I (\( \text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 \)).
C. Dentistry, Ornamental work: - Calcium sulfate (\( \text{CaSO}_4 \)) is used in dentistry and ornamental work, especially in plaster form. - Match: C – II (\( \text{CaSO}_4 \)).
D. Used in white washing: - Slaked lime (\( \text{Ca(OH)}_2 \)) is commonly used in white washing. - Match: D – IV \(\text{Ca}(OH)_2\)
Conclusion: The correct matches are: \[ \text{A – III, B – I, C – II, D – IV} \]

P-Block Elements
- P block elements are those in which the last electron enters any of the three p-orbitals of their respective shells. Since a p-subshell has three degenerate p-orbitals each of which can accommodate two electrons, therefore in all there are six groups of p-block elements.
- P block elements are shiny and usually a good conductor of electricity and heat as they have a tendency to lose an electron. You will find some amazing properties of elements in a P-block element like gallium. It’s a metal that can melt in the palm of your hand. Silicon is also one of the most important metalloids of the p-block group as it is an important component of glass.
P block elements consist of:
- Group 13 Elements: Boron family
- Group 14 Elements: Carbon family
- Group 15 Elements: Nitrogen family
- Group 16 Elements: Oxygen family
- Group 17 Elements: Fluorine family
- Group 18 Elements: Neon family
