All the noble elements to the far right of the Periodic Table have their s and P sublevels in their valence shell filled, hence they are nonreactive.

How would you justify the presence of 18 elements in the fifth of period of periodic table?

In the fifth period of the periodic table, the atoms of the elements in the first two groups are adding 1 and 2 electrons, respectively, to their highest energy 5s sublevel. Starting in group 3/IIIB and going through group 12/IIB, the atoms of those elements are adding electrons to their highest energy 4d sublevel. Since the d sublevel can contain a maxium of 10 electrons, there are 10 elements whose atoms are filling the 4d sublevel. Once the 4d sublevel is filled, the next higher energy sublevel is the 5p sublevel. Starting with the group 13/IIIA elements, the 5p sublevel is being filled. Since a p sublevel can contain a maximum of 6 electrons, there are six elements whose atoms are filling the 5p sublevel. 5s sublevel filling: 2 elements 4d sublevel filling: 10 elements 5p sublevel filling: 6 elements --------------------------------------- Total: 18 elements For a printable periodic table that includes electron configurations, go to the following link: http://www.nist.gov/pml/data/periodic.cfm

Why d block element are called transition element?

d block elements, transition metals, transition elements are synonyms.The definition of d block after the IUPAC recommendation is "an element whose atom has a partially filled d sub-shell, or which can give rise to cations with an incomplete dsub-shell".

What is the outermost structure of a plant cell?

The outermost structure of a plant cell is a cell wall. Plant cells have cell walls for extra protection as they cannot move like animals and protists, whose outermost cell structure is the cell membrane, a thinner protective cover.


How many electrons are in the first period?

for all elements, excluding hydrogen, there are 2 electrons in the first energy level. Hydrogen is the exception of this because it only has a single electron, thus it only has 1 in its first and only energy level.
