Down the grp

A

Size ↑
Ionisation potential (∆iH) ↓
BP ↑ [Ex. Sb>Bi]
MP ↑ [Till As and decrease]

41
Q

Electron affinity

A

Grp 15 < Grp 16

Bcas grp 15 has half filled config. which is quite stable

42
Q

Fajan’s Rule

A

sai - small anion - ionic

EX₃ > EX₅

EX₅ is more covalent due to big anion (more anion)

or +5 in EX₅ - more polarising
