JEE Main Chemistry question

In the Periodic Table, going down the fluorine group

(A)Stability of hydrides will increase
(B)Ionic radii will increaseCorrect
(C)Electronegativity will increase
(D)IE will increase

Answer: (B)

Solution

Moving down group 17, successive shells are added, so both atomic and ionic radii steadily increase. In contrast, stability of hydrides, electronegativity and ionisation energy
