A collection of practice questions covering the topic of 100 to help students prepare for exams and assess their understanding.
Second ionization enthalpy is highest for Li (removing e⁻ from Li+ with 1s²) and decreases across period 2 as stability reduces: Li > Be > B > C.

All group 15 elements can exhibit a +5 oxidation state, but N achieves it most prominently (e.g., in HNO₃) due to its small size and high electronegativity, unlike P, As, or Sb.

Pnictogens are group 15 elements. Sb (group 15) is a pnictogen, while Te (group 16), I (group 17), and Sn (group 14) are not.
