જવાબ : Chemical properties.
જવાબ : All the elements of a group of the Modern Periodic Table have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electrons in their outermost shell.
જવાબ : Modern Periodic Law states that properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic number.
જવાબ : Electro negativity of an element is the tendency of its atom to attract electrons towards itself when bonded to the atom of another element. So, the elements that are electronegative, i.e., tend to form bonds by gaining electrons are the non-metals. On the other hand, elements with low or negligible electro negativity are known as metals.

જવાબ : According to Dobereiner triad, atomic mass of strontium is the arithmetic means of Ca and Ba as strontium lies between Ca and Ba.
Atomic mass of Sr = 40+1372=1772=88.5
જવાબ : Oxygen is divalent in nature. The valency of magnesium in magnesium oxide is + 2. The formula of magnesium chloride is MgCl2 since chlorine has valency equal to one.
જવાબ : This statement is wrong. The number of valence electrons in an element of group 17 = 17 – 10 = 7.
Therefore, the valency of the element = 8 – 7 = 1.

જવાબ : The position of the element hydrogen is still not clear even in the Modern Periodic Table.
In electronic configuration, it resembles alkali metals of group 1. All of them have only one electron in the valence shell. Actually, hydrogen has only one shell (K-shell) which has one electron. In characteristics, it resembles halogens of group 17. For example, like halogens hydrogen is a non-metal and diatomic as well. It has been therefore, decided to assign hydrogen a unique position in the Modern or Long Form Periodic Table. It is placed at the top in group 1 of alkali metals. However, it is not a member of that group.જવાબ : Since element “X’ is placed in group 14, therefore, its valency is 14 – 10 = 4. Further, since it is difficult to either lose all the four valence electrons or gain four more electrons, therefore, it prefers to share these four electrons to acquire the stable electronic configuration of the nearest inert gas. Its formula will be XCl4. Thus, the nature of the chloride of element ‘X’ is covalent.
જવાબ : Atomic number corresponds to the number of electron in an atom or it reflects the electronic configuration of the element. The elements having similar electronic configurations can then be placed together in the same group, it helps in the systematic classification of elements.
On the other hand, the atomic mass of an element does not provide the electronic configuration of an element, so atomic number is more fundamental property for classification of elements.જવાબ : The electronic configuration of an atom of an element gives its position in the modern periodic table.
(i) The ‘period number’ of an element is equal to the number of electron shells in its atom.
(ii)
જવાબ : (i) All the elements in a particular group have similar outer shell electronic configuration. Since chemical properties of an element are determined mainly by the outer shell configuration, all the elements in a group have similar chemical properties.
(ii) All the elements in a period have different valence shell electronic configuration because they have different number of electrons in the valence shell. Hence, the elements in a period have different chemical properties.જવાબ :
જવાબ :
(1) Na has the largest atomic radius because on moving from left to right in the periodic table, the atomic radius decreases due to increase in positive charge on the nucleus which pulls the outermost electrons more close to the nucleus and the size of atom decreases. (2) Al is least reactive because on moving from left to right in the periodic table the nuclear charge increases and the valence electrons are pulled in more close to the nucleus. Therefore, the tendency to lose electrons decreases and hence reactivity decreases.જવાબ : Number of groups is 18 and number of periods in the modern periodic table is 7.
(a) All the elements in a group have the same valency. On going down in a group, the atomic size increases because a new shell of electrons is added to the atoms at every step.
જવાબ : (i) From the above given electronic configuration we find that element X has 6 valence electrons in the outermost shell), so the group number of element X in the periodic table is 6 + 10 = 16.
(ii) Element X has 3 electron shells (K, L and M) in its atom, so the period number of X is 3. That is, X belongs to 3rd period of the periodic table. (iii) Element X has 6 valence electrons. (iv) Element X has 6 valence electrons so it needs 2 more electrons to complete its octet (8 electrons in valence shell) and become stable. Thus, the valency of element X is 2.જવાબ : (i) The electronic configuration of element X (Z = 12) = 2, 8, 2
The electronic configuration of element Y (Z = 17) = 2, 8, 7
જવાબ : X and Y belong to same period.
જવાબ : (a) Since the elements have one valence electron, they are placed in group 1 (Alkali metals) in the order Li (period = 2); Na (period = 3); K (period = 4).
(b) Since the reactivity of the elements increases down a group, the element Li is the least reactive chemically. (c) Since the atomic size increases down a group, the element K has the large atomic size or atomic radius out of these elements.જવાબ : The element with atomic number Z = 16 is sulphur. The electronic configuration of the element is 2, 8, 6.
(i) The number of valence electrons is 6
(ii) The valency of the element is 2 (8 – 6 = 2)
(iii) The group number of the element is 16.
(iv) The element is a non-metal.
(v) Since the element is non-metal, its oxide is acidic in nature. Actually, two oxides are formed. These are SO2 and SO3. Both are of acidic nature.
(vi) The formula of the chloride is SCl2.
જવાબ : The vertical columns in a periodic table are called groups.
(i) All the elements of a group have the same number of valence electrons.
(ii) On moving down in a group the number of occupied (filled) shells increases gradually.
(iii) On going down in a group the size of atoms increases because a new shell of electrons is added to the atoms at every step.
(iv) On going down in a group the metallic character of elements increases.
(v) On moving down in a group, one more electron shell is added at every stage and size of the atom increases. Thus valence electrons move more and more away from the nucleus and hold of the nucleus or nuclear charge on valence electrons decreases.
જવાબ : a) The element X which is a yellow solid at room temperature and shows catenation and allotropy is sulphur (S).
(b) The atomic number of sulphur is 16. Therefore, its electronic configuration is 2, 8, 6. (c) Both SO2 and SO3 are major air pollutants. (d) Since sulphur is a non-metal, therefore, both SO2 and SO3 are acidic oxides since they dissolve in water to form the corresponding acids. (e) Since sulphur contains six valence electrons, therefore, it lies in group 6 + 10 = 16. Further, since atomic number of sulphur (S) is 16, it lies in the 3rd period.જવાબ : (a) X belongs to Group 17 and 3rd Period.
Y belongs to Group 2 and 4th Period.
(b) X-non-metal and Y-metal.
(c) Basic oxide; Ionic bonding.
(d)
જવાબ : (a) As different elements were being discovered, scientists gathered more information about the properties of these elements. It was observed that it was difficult to organize all the information or properties of these elements. So scientists started discovering some pattern in their properties to classify all the known elements to make their study easier.
(b) Atomic mass and similarity of chemical properties (compounds formed by elements with oxygen and hydrogen) were the two criteria used by Mendeleev in his Periodic Table. (c) Mendeleev left some gaps in his Periodic Table as he predicted the existence of some elements that had not been discovered at that time. (d) Noble gases like helium, neon, argon, etc. were not mentioned in Mendeleev’s Periodic Table because these gases were discovered later as they are very inert and present in extremely low concentrations in our atmosphere. After the discovery of noble gases they could be placed in a new group without disturbing the existing order of the Periodic Table. (e) The Modem Periodic Table states that properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic numbers, since Cl-35 and Cl-37 isotopes have the same atomic number (17), hence they will have same chemical properties even though their atomic masses are different. So, they should be placed in the same slot of the periodic table.જવાબ : (a) The element are: Neon (Z = 10), Calcium (Z = 20), Nitrogen (Z = 7) and Silicon (Z = 14).
(b) Group number: Neon (18), Calcium (2), Nitrogen (15), Silicon (14).
(c) Periods: Neon (2), Calcium (4), Fluorine (2), Silicon (3).
(d) Electronic Configuration: Neon (2, 8); Calcium (2, 8, 8, 2); Nitrogen (2, 5); Silicon (2, 8, 4).
(e) Valency: Neon (zero); Calcium (2); Nitrogen (3); Silicon (4).
જવાબ : (i) Organized approach always makes the work easier and quicker. Hence, classification makes the things easier.
(ii) Organized approach in classification of elements make the study easier and we get a group of elements with similar properties.જવાબ : Modern periodic table is based on the atomic number and atomic number is directly related to the electronic configuration. One can find the group number and period number of an element on the basis of electronic configuration. For example, if an element has 1 or 2 electrons in its outermost shell, then it would belong to group 1 or group 2. And if it has 3 or more electrons in its outermost shell, then it would belong to group 10 4- the number of electrons in the outermost shell.
All the alkali metals have one electron in their outermost shell, so they are placed in group 1. Thus, all the group 2 elements have 2 electrons in their outermost shell. In group 15 elements, there are 5 electrons in their outermost shell. Similarly, the number of shells in an element indicates its period number. For example, the atomic number of magnesium is 12 and its electronic configuration is 2, 8, 2. Thus it is an element of 3rd period.જવાબ :

જવાબ : The atomic number of calcium is 20, so its electronic configuration is 2, 8, 8, 2. Thus, calcium has 2 valence electrons (in its outermost shell). Now, the element which has 2 valence electrons, will have physical and chemical properties resembling to that of calcium. The electronic configuration of element having atomic number 12 is 2, 8, 2. It has 2 valence electrons just like calcium. So, the element having atomic number 12 will have physical and chemical properties resembling that of calcium.

જવાબ : (i) Newlands law of octaves was applicable to the classification of elements up to calcium only. After calcium every eighth element did not possess the properties similar to that of the first element.
(ii) Newlands assumed that only 56 elements existed in nature and no more elements would be discovered in the future. But later on, several new elements were discovered whose properties did not fit into Newlands’ law of Octaves.
(iii) In order to fit elements into his table, Newlands put even two elements together in one slot and that too in the column of unlike elements having very different properties.
For example, the two elements cobalt (Co) and nickel (Ni) were put together in just one slot and that too in the column of elements like fluorine, chlorine and bromine which have very different properties from these elements.
