Which group on the Periodic Table of the Elements contains elements that react with oxygen to form compounds with the general formula X2O?
Group 16 on the Periodic Table, also known as the chalcogens, contains elements that react with oxygen to form compounds with the general formula X2O. The elements in this group include oxygen, sulfur, selenium, tellurium, and polonium.
What is the general name for a column of elements in a periodic table?
groups
What can be predicted by a elements location in the periodic table?
The location of an element in the periodic table of elements tells you its general chemical properties. Elements are of essentially 3 types, metal, non metal, or noble gas (which is a special type of non metal) and those all have their own locations on the table; in addition you can tell a lot about how chemically active an element is, or in other words, how metallic is it, or how non metallic. We know for example, that the the halogens, in group seven, are most non metallic at the top of the table, and become progressively less non metallic (or in other words more metallic) as you go down the column. The noble gases are at their most inert at the top of the column. And so forth.
What is the general trend of the melting points of elements on the periodic table?
The general trend of melting points of elements on the periodic table increases from left to right across a period and decreases down a group.
Which elements in the periodic table are metalloids or have semimetallic properties?
The elements that are commonly recognized as metalloids or semimetals are boron (B), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), and tellurium (Te). These elements exhibit properties of both metals and nonmetals, such as being good conductors of electricity but also brittle and less malleable.
What is the most useful source of general information about the elements in chemistry?
periodic table
What are the general properties or the elements in the group to the right in the modern periodic table?
their general properties is that they are all non metals
Where are non-metals in the periodic table?
In general along the period from left to right the non metallic property of elements decreases... also down the period the metallic property increases in general... Hence, we mostly find the non metals in the p-block, especially in the upper periods... Halogens, Chalcogens , Pnicogens , are almost all non metals with a few exception (metalloids like Bismuth)...
What does the periodic table describe about an element?
Periodic table describes the symbol, atomic number, mass number of different elements in general.
What are the general properties of the elements in the group to the right of the periodic table?
Generally, the elements to the right of the zig zag line on the periodic table are non-metals, elements to the left of the zig zag line on the periodic table are metals, and elements on the zig zag line are metalloids with the exception of aluminum, which is a metal.
What are the general properties of the elements in the group to the right in the periodic table'?
Generally, the elements to the right of the zig zag line on the Periodic Table are non-metals, elements to the left of the zig zag line on the periodic table are metals, and elements on the zig zag line are metalloids with the exception of aluminum, which is a metal.
What are the general properties of the elements in the group on the right side of the periodic table?
The elements present at right side groups of the periodic table are non-metals. They have high electron affinity and ionization energy.
