(a)
Interpretation:
The element that has greater metallic character is to be predicted using the trends within the periodic table.
Concept introduction:
The elements in a modern periodic table are arranged in increasing order of their
The trends within the periodic table describe the change in the properties such as atomic size, ionization energy and metallic character within a group or in a period.
(b)
Interpretation:
The element that has greater metallic character is to be predicted using the trends within the periodic table.
Concept introduction:
The elements in a modern periodic table are arranged in increasing order of their atomic number. In the modern periodic table, the horizontal rows are known as periods and vertical columns are known as groups. There are seven periods and eighteenth groups in modern periodic table.
The trends within the periodic table describe the change in the properties such as atomic size, ionization energy and metallic character within a group or in a period.
