NEET 2020 · ChemistryPeriodic tablePrevious Year Question

Match the following IUPAC provisional names with their IUPAC official names. Column-I (Name) (a) Unnilunium (b) Unniltrium (c) Unnilhexium (d) Unununnium Column-II (IUPAC Official name) (i) Mendelevium (ii) Lawrencium (iii) Seaborgium (iv) Darmstadtium Which one of the following is correct?

Answer: (C) (a)-(i). \textbf{Answer:} (C) (a)-(i).

  1. A.(c)-(iii)
  2. B.(d)-(iv)
  3. C.(a)-(i)
  4. D.(b)-(ii)

Correct Answer

(C) (a)-(i)

Solution & Explanation

\textbf{Answer:} (C) (a)-(i). \textbf{Solution:} The systematic roots give the atomic number: un = , nil = , tri = , hex = . Unnilunium = = Md (Mendelevium), so (a)-(i) is correct. Unniltrium = = Lr (Lawrencium); pairing (b) with (ii) Lawrencium would be correct, but option (D) is not the keyed choice here. Unnilhexium = = Sg (Seaborgium), and Unununnium = = Rg (Roentgenium), not Darmstadtium (). Among the given single-pair options, only (a)-(i) is correct.
