A period is a row of elements
Period 1: 2 elements Period 2: 8 elements Period 3: 8 elements Period 4: 18 elements Period 5: 18 elements Period 6: 32 elements Period 7: 25 elements
All elements comprising the period 7 in the periodic table are radioactive. In total this period has 32 elements.
No, period 1 elements are not more electronegative than period 2 elements. Electronegativity generally increases across a period from left to right, so elements in period 2 are generally more electronegative than elements in period 1.
There are two elements in the first period, hydrogen and helium.
There are 2 elements in the first period, 8, 8 elements in 2nd and 3rd periods respectively,
There are 4 electronic shells in period 4 while there are 5 shells in period 5.Elements of period 4 are smaller in size as compared to elements of period 5.Example of period 4 element is potassium and period 5 element is tin.
period 3
There are 32 elements in the 6th period of the periodic table.
8 elements
The period number of an element corresponds to the energy level of its outermost electrons. Elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells. As you move from left to right across a period, the number of protons and electrons increases, resulting in higher effective nuclear charge, which affects the properties of the elements.
Period 4 and period 5 of the periodic table have the same number of elements. There are 18 elements in each period. While some elements in period 4 are calcium, iron, and zinc, elements in period 5 are tin, antimony, and iodine.
Period-1 represents elements of the sun. This period constitutes hydrogen and helium.
