P-block elements can be metals, metalloids, or nonmetals whiles S-block elements are all metals. P-block elements can be either gases or solids while S-block are all solids. and each P-block elements displays a greater range of properties.
The elements in s and p block have only the outer valence shell incomplete. Outer electronic configuration of s-block: ns1-2. Outer electronic configuration of p- block: ns2 np1-6.
If the nth shell is incomplete, the element will show regular pattern in properties in a group. Hence, the s and p-block elements are called Representative Elements.
The Periodic Table has four different blocks: s, p, d, and f. If an element is in the s block, the means the outer shell is capable of holding 2 electrons. If an element is in the p block, the outer shell is capable of holding 6 electrons. An example is the electronic configuration for Nitrogen. The configuration is: 1s22s23p3. That is why Nitrogen is in the P block. It is hard to explain, so I would recommend asking your chemistry teacher to explain further.
They are called so because they follow normal and simple rules for filling up their orbits.. They are the normal elements which we have studied from so far........
whi is the p block called the p block. what is its connection to electron configurations
s and p block elements are called representative elements because s and p block element follows normal rules for filling the orbitals
s block are metals.p block are metal,non-metal,or can be metalloids.
There is no specific element with the symbol SCN on the periodic table. SCN commonly refers to the thiocyanate ion (SCN-) which is a polyatomic ion. It is a combination of sulfur (S), carbon (C), and nitrogen (N), commonly found in compounds.
The fiftieth element is tin. It is represented by the chemical symbol Sn.
Carbon is a pblock element. It shows -4 to +4 oxidation numbers.
