Given below are two statements:
Statement I : Group 13 trivalent halides get easily hydrolyzed by water due to their covalent nature.
Statement II : $$\mathrm{AlCl}_3$$ upon hydrolysis in acidified aqueous solution forms octahedral $$\left[\mathrm{Al}\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_6\right]^{3+}$$ ion.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
Given below are two statements:
Statement I : $$\mathrm{S}_8$$ solid undergoes disproportionation reaction under alkaline conditions to form $$\mathrm{S}^{2-}$$ and $$\mathrm{S}_2 \mathrm{O}_3{ }^{2-}$$.
Statement II : $$\mathrm{ClO}_4^{-}$$ can undergo disproportionation reaction under acidic condition.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
Choose the correct statements from the following
A. All group 16 elements form oxides of general formula $$\mathrm{EO}_2$$ and $$\mathrm{EO}_3$$, where $$\mathrm{E}=\mathrm{S}, \mathrm{Se}, \mathrm{Te}$$ and $$\mathrm{Po}$$. Both the types of oxides are acidic in nature.
B. $$\mathrm{TeO}_2$$ is an oxidising agent while $$\mathrm{SO}_2$$ is reducing in nature.
C. The reducing property decreases from $$\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{~S}$$ to $$\mathrm{H}_2$$ Te down the group.
D. The ozone molecule contains five lone pairs of electrons.
