VI                 738       1451        –40

Which of the above elements is likely to be:

(a) The least reactive element

(b) The most reactive metal

(c) The most reactive non-metal

(d) The least reactive non-metal

(e) The metal which can form a stable binary halide of the formula MX₂ (X = halogen)

(f) The metal which can form a predominantly stable covalent halide of the formula MX (X = halogen)?

Electronic configuration of some elements is given in Column I and their electron gain enthalpies are given in Column II. Match the electronic configuration with electron gain enthalpy.
