Vedclass · Answer

(B) The stability of an ion depends on the energy required to reach that oxidation state. $A$ lower sum of ionization energies $(IE)$ indicates that the corresponding ion is more stable.For $P^{2+}$ and $Q^{2+}$: The sum of $IE_1 + IE_2$ is $2.45 \ kJ/mol$ for $P$ and $2.85 \ kJ/mol$ for $Q$. Since $2.45 For $P^{4+}$ and $Q^{4+}$: The sum of $IE_1 + IE_2 + IE_3 + IE_4$ is $(2.45 + 8.82) = 11.27 \ kJ/mol$ for $P$ and $(2.85 + 6.11) = 8.96 \ kJ/mol$ for $Q$. Since $8.96 Therefore,statement $(B)$ ($P^{4+}$ is more stable than $Q^{4+}$) is incorrect,and statement $(C)$ ($P^{4+}$ is less stable than $Q^{4+}$) is correct.The question asks for the incorrect statement$(s)$. Only $(B)$ is incorrect.

Element	$IE_1 + IE_2$ $(kJ/mol)$	$IE_3 + IE_4$ $(kJ/mol)$
$P$	$2.45$	$8.82$
$Q$	$2.85$	$6.11$

The sum of $IE_1 + IE_2$ and $IE_3 + IE_4$ for elements $P$ and $Q$ are given below:

Element $IE_1 + IE_2$ $(kJ/mol)$ $IE_3 + IE_4$ $(kJ/mol)$

$P$ $2.45$ $8.82$

$Q$ $2.85$ $6.11$

Then,according to the given information,the incorrect statement$(s)$ is/are:
