Arrange the following as per instructions given in the brackets.

(a) Mg, Cl, Na, S, Si (decreasing order of atomic size)

(b) Cs, Na, Li, K, Rb (increasing metallic character)

(c) Na, K, Cl, S, Si (increasing ionisation potential)

(d) Cl, F, Br, I (increasing electron affinity)

(e) Cs, Na, Li, K, Rb (decreasing electronegativity)

(f) K, Pb, Ca, Zn (increasing reactivity)

Answer

(a) Na > Mg > Si > S > Cl.

(b) Li < Na < K < Rb < Cs.

(c) K < Na < Si < S < Cl.

(d) I < Br < F* < Cl.
Flourine (F) in group 17 is an exception. It has lower electron affinity than Chlorine (Cl).

(e) Li > Na > K > Rb > Cs.

(f) Pb < Zn < Ca < K.

(g) H > Li > Na > K.
