1.
Within a period, the oxidising character increases from left to right. Therefore, among F, 0 and N, oxidising power decreases in the order: F > 0 > N. However, within a group, oxidising power decreases from top to bottom. Thus, F is a stronger oxidising agent than Cl. Further because 0 is more electronegative than Cl, therefore, 0 is a stronger oxidising agent than Cl. Thus, overall decreasing order of oxidising power is: F > 0 > Cl > N, i.e., option (b) is correct.
2.
In a period, the non-metallic character increases from left to right. Thus, among B, C, Nand F, non-metallic character decreases in the order: F > N> C> B. However, within a group, non-metallic character decreases from top to bottom. Thus, C is more non-metallic than Si. Therefore, the correct sequence of decreasing non-metallic character is: F> N> C> B > Si, i.e., option (c) is correct.
3.
In a period, metallic character decreases as we move from left to right. Therefore, metallic character of K, Mg and Al decreases in the order: K > Mg > AI. However, within a group, the metallic character, increases from top to bottom. Thus, Al is more metallic than B. Therefore, the correct sequence of decreasing metallic character is: K> Mg > Al > B, i.e., option (d) is correct.
