S1: Be+2 has higher SRP than other alkaline earth metals.
S2: Be+2 has higher hydration energy and greater △aH (atomisation enthalpy) than other alkaline earth metals.
S1: Be+2 has higher SRP than other alkaline earth metals.
S2: Be+2 has higher hydration energy and greater △aH (atomisation enthalpy) than other alkaline earth metals.
Updated On: Mar 30, 2026
Both S1 & S2 are true
S1 is true ; S2 is false
S1 is false ; S2 is true
Both S1 & S2 are false
Show Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
The correct option is(A): Both S1 & S2 are true.
Be has least –ve SRP value because of high △aH (atomisation enthalpy), inspite of maximum hydration energy.
The correct option is (A): Both S1 & S2 are true.

P-Block Elements
- P block elements are those in which the last electron enters any of the three p-orbitals of their respective shells. Since a p-subshell has three degenerate p-orbitals each of which can accommodate two electrons, therefore in all there are six groups of p-block elements.
- P block elements are shiny and usually a good conductor of electricity and heat as they have a tendency to lose an electron. You will find some amazing properties of elements in a P-block element like gallium. It’s a metal that can melt in the palm of your hand. Silicon is also one of the most important metalloids of the p-block group as it is an important component of glass.
P block elements consist of:
- Group 13 Elements: Boron family
- Group 14 Elements: Carbon family
- Group 15 Elements: Nitrogen family
- Group 16 Elements: Oxygen family
- Group 17 Elements: Fluorine family
- Group 18 Elements: Neon family
