58. Answer (3)

Electronic configuration represents 'P'. 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p3 = 15 down the group add 18e–
because 3rd periodhave 18 elements.
∴ Atomic number of element below is 33.

59. Answer (4)

Smaller the size more will be the electron affinity due to more attraction towards new electron but as
size ofF is less it is expected to have more electron affinity but actually F have 7 e – in outermost shell
(and havesmaller size) cause repulsion towards new e –.
∴Cl> F
Cl (more electron affinity), F (less electron affinity)

60. Answer (2)

Size of anion is more than parent atom due to less effective nuclear charge on outermost electrons.
Size ofcation is less due to more effective nuclear charge.
∴ I–> I >I(+) size order.
