Answer: (a) Inert pair effect: The pair of electron in the valence shell does not take part in bond formation is called inert pair effect.
(b)Allotropy: It is the property of the element by which an element can exist in two or more forms which have same chemical properties but different physical properties due to their structures.
(c)Catenation: The property to form chains or rings not only with single bonds but also with multiple bonds with itself is called catenation.
For example, carbon forms chains with (C-C) single bonds and also with multiple bonds (C = C or C = C)
