In which of the following value of mentioned property first increases and then decreases as we move from left to right in given options.

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
B, D
Solution:

The correct options are B and D.

 

Option B: Electron affinity generally decreases down a group. For O, S, Se, electron affinity increases from O to S due to less electron-electron repulsion in the larger S atom, then decreases from S to Se.

 

Option D: Spin magnetic moment for Mn, Cr, V depends on the number of unpaired electrons. V (3d³, 3 unpaired), Cr (3d⁵, 6 unpaired), Mn (3d⁵, 5 unpaired). The number of unpaired electrons (and thus spin magnetic moment) increases from V to Cr, then decreases from Cr to Mn.
