(a)
Interpretation:
Among the three elements represented by sphere [1] and [2] and [3] of the same group, the element with highest
Concept Introduction:
The elements are organized in periodic table on the basis of their electronic configuration. They are put in different groups and periods according to their atomic number. This makes the study of these compounds systematic as elements with same chemical properties fall in the same group.
(b)
Interpretation:
Among the three elements represented by sphere [1] and [2] and [3] of the same group, the element with largest ionization energy is to be identified.

- In each of the following sets of elements, indicate which element has the smallest atomic size. msp;a.Na,K,Rbc.N,P,Asb.Na,Si,Sd.N,O,Farrow_forwardThe four most abundant elements by mass in the human body are oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen. These four elements make up about 96% of the human body. The next four most abundant elements are calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and potassium. Excluding hydrogen, which of these elements would have the smallest size? largest size? smallest first ionization energy? largest first ionization energy?arrow_forwardIn each of the following sets of elements, which element would he expected to have the highest ionization energy? msp;a.Cs,K,Lic.l,Br,Clb.Ba,Sr,Cad.Mg,Si,Sarrow_forward
