Caesium has the highest electrical conductivity in its group.(a) true(b) falseThis question was posed to me during an online interview.This key question is from s-Block Elements topic in chapter s-Block Elements of Chemistry – Class 11

Answer»

The correct choice is (a) true

For explanation: Due to the presence of loosely held Valence Electrons which are free to MOVE throughout the metal structure, the alkali metals are good conductors of HEAT and electricity. Electrical conductivity increases from top to bottom in the order, so CAESIUM has the HIGHEST electrical conductivity in its GROUP.
