- Which of the following statements is not a correct statement about the trends when going from left Correct option is (c) The atoms lose their electrons more easily. 1
- By considering their position in the Periodic Table, which one of the following elements Since Be lies to the extreme left hand side of the periodic table, Be is the most metallic among the given elements. 1
- In the Modern Periodic Table, which are the metals among the first ten elements? Among the first ten elements, lithium (Li) and beryllium (Be) are metals. 1
- Helium is an unreactive gas and neon is a gas of extremely low reactivity. What, if anything, Both helium (He) and neon (Ne) have filled outermost shells. Helium has a duplet in its K shell, while neon has an octet in its L shell. 1
- Lithium, sodium, potassium are all metals that react with water to liberate hydrogen gas. Is there any Yes. The atoms of all the three elements lithium, sodium, and potassium have one electron in their outermost shells. 1
- Name (c) three elements with filled outermost shells. Neon (Ne), argon (Ar), and xenon (Xe) have filled outermost shells. 1
- Name (b) two elements that have two electrons in their outermost shells. Magnesium (Mg) and calcium (Ca) have two electrons in their outermost shells. 1
- Name (a) three elements that have a single electron in their outermost shells. Lithium (Li), sodium (Na), and potassium (K) have a single electron in their outermost shells. 1
- Name two elements you would expect to show chemical reactions similar to magnesium. Calcium (Ca) and strontium (Sr) are expected to show chemical reactions similar to magnesium (Mg). This is because the number of valence ele... 1
- How could the Modern Periodic Table remove various anomalies of Mendeleev's Periodic Table? Various anomalies of Mendeleev’s Periodic Table removed as follows in the Modern Periodic Table: → Elements are arranged in the increasing o... 2
- Why do you think the noble gases are placed in a separate group? Noble gases are inert elements. Their properties are different from the all other elements. Therefore, the noble gases are placed in a separ... 1
- What were the criteria used by Mendeleev in creating his Periodic Table? Mendeleev used atomic mass of the elements as the unique criteria of the elements. He proposed that the chemical properties of elements are... 2
- Besides gallium, which other elements have since been discovered that were left by Mendeleev in his Periodic Table? Scandium and germanium. 2
- Use Mendeleev's Periodic Table to predict the formulae for the oxides of the following elements: K, C, Al, Si, Ba. K is in group 1. Therefore, the oxide will be K₂O. C is in group 4. Therefore, the oxide will be CO₂. Al is in group 3. Therefore, the oxide... 1
- What were the limitations of Newlands' Law of Octaves? Limitations of Newlands' law of octaves: → It was not applicable throughout the arrangements. It was applicable up to calcium only. The prop... 1
- What were the limitations of Dobereiner's classification? Limitation of Dobereiner's classification: All known elements could not be classified into groups of triads on the basis of their properties... 1
- Did Dobereiner's triads also exist in the columns of Newlands' Octaves? Compare and find out. Yes, Dobereiner's triads also exist in the columns of Newlands' Octaves. One such column is Li, K, Na. 1
- Explain the mechanism of the cleaning action of soaps. The dirt present on clothes is organic in nature and insoluble in water. Therefore, it cannot be removed by only washing with water. When so... 1
