    Position of five elements P, Q, R, S and T is shown on the simplified form of the periodic table.
     
    The element which has maximum tendency to lose electron, the element which has maximum tendency to gain electrons and the element which has no tendency to gain or lose electrons are respectively
     

    A) P, R and S

    B) S, R and T

    C) Q, S and P

    D) Q, R and T.

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Tendency to lose electrons increases down the group hence, Q will have maximum tendency to lose electrons. Tendency to gain electrons decreases down the group hence, R has maximum tendency to gain electrons. T is a noble gas hence, it has no tendency to gain or lose electron.
