C
Statement I is false but Statement II is true.
D
Both Statement I and Statement II is false.
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Incorrect. Try again or view the solution.
Solution
Chemical reactivity of elements decreases along the period therefore statement - I is false.
Group - 1 elements from basic nature oxides while group - 17 elements form acidic oxides therefore statement - II is true.
