Question

Anomalous behaviour of oxygen, compared to other VIA group elements is due to:
  1. its high electronegativity
  2. its small atomic size
  3. non availability of d-orbitals
  4. all

A
non availability of d-orbitals
B
its high electronegativity
C
all
D
its small atomic size
Solution
Verified by Toppr


Oxygen is the first element of VI A group and shows Anaomalous behaviour than other group elements because
1:High Electronegativity
2:small atomic size
3:Non-avalability of d-orbits results in different compounds than their other group elements.
