discuss the trends in chemical reactivity of group 15 elements
Hi student,
The trends in chemical reactivity of group 15 elements are as follows:-
- These elements form hydrides of the type EH3. On moving down the group, the stability of hydrides decreases.
- These elements form the oxides E2O3 and E2O5. On moving down the group, the acidic character decreases.
- These elements form the salts EX3 and EX5.
- These elements form compounds with metals. In these compounds, the oxidation state of metal is -3.
