Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness present within the molecules of a substance.

When entropy of a reaction has a positive sign then it means there is an increase in the entropy. On the other hand, when entropy of a reaction has a negative sign then it means there is a decrease in entropy.

As, entropy change = entropy of products - entropy of reactants

And, larger is the value of entropy more will be the number of microstates.

When entropy is negative then entropy of products is less than the entropy of reactants.

This also means that products have small number of available energy microstates than reactants.

Thus, we can conclude that a negative change in entropy indicates that the products have a smaller number of available energy microstates than the reactants.

From the given elements Na, P , Ca ,Br which one has highest first ionization energy , ,smallest atomic size , most metallic cha
madam [21]

Answer:

highest first ionization energy - Br

smallest atomic size - Br

most metallic character - Na

Explanation:

Ionization energy of Br is higher than P because higher zeff value

Sodium is more metallic than calcium because it is able to loose electron more readily as compared to calcium because of higher electro positivity.

Atomic radius of Br is the smallest as its atomic radius is 114, P (115), Ca (197), Na (186)
