What is similar between nitrogen and bismuth?

They both lie in the same group, which means the valency is alike. Although nitrogen lies at the top, where as bismuth is at the bottom of the periodic table. This signifies that the nitrogen forms covalent bonds more so, then does bismuth. Basically: - both not toxic - both like to be in the 3+ oxidation state


Do elements in a group of the periodic table have similar characteristics?

Generally speaking yes; it breaks down a bit in the middle-right area, because as you go down the table the metallic character tends to become more pronounced, and (for example) bismuth and nitrogen are pretty dissimilar.


What elements are in the nitrogen family?

The nitrogen group, which is Group 15 of the periodic table, contains nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), arsenic(As), antimony (Sb) and bismuth (Bi). We might want to include the unconfirmed ununpentium (Uup) in the group, but there is no evidence that it exists. A link can be found below to check facts and learn more.


Does electronegativity become more or less metallic from top to bottom?

more.


Is aluminum more metallic than boron?

Yes, it is more metallic. Al has an extra full shell of electrons which shields the positive charge of the nucleus. This means that the outer electrons are held less tightly by the nucleus and therefore lost more easily making it a more metallic element


As you go down a group the elements generally become more or less metallic?

Is antimony more or less metallic than is arsenic?

Antimony is more metallic than Arsenic. As we already know, metallic nature increases down a group. As Antimony lies just below Arsenic in Group 15, it is said to have more metallic character.

What element family does the element bismuth belong to?

The element Bismuth (Bi) belongs to the Nitrogen family (Group 15). This means it has similar characteristics to other elements in this family. Bismuth is atomic number 83 and the last non-radioactive element.
