Because there is no p orbital in the first energy level as per quantum mechanics.
There are 2 elements in the first period, 8, 8 elements in 2nd and 3rd periods respectively,
The first period is at the top of the table. It consists of hydrogen and helium. The bottom period is period 7.
The s block is located on the left side of the periodic table, corresponding to groups 1 and 2. It includes elements like hydrogen, lithium, and sodium. These elements have one or two electrons in their outermost s orbital.
In the Periodic Table of Elements there are: 118 Observed Elements 114 Officially Discovered Elements 112 Officially named Elements 92 Naturally Occuring Elements 83 Non-radioactive elements
Yes, there were elements on the first periodic table. I believe that there are still elements on the periodic table.
There are 2 elements in the first period, 8, 8 elements in 2nd and 3rd periods respectively,
D-block elements require additional energy levels to accommodate their electrons, which is not available in the first period of the periodic table. The first period only has room for two elements due to the limited space in the 1s orbital.
The first period is at the top of the table. It consists of hydrogen and helium. The bottom period is period 7.
The first period of the periodic table's elements all have 1 energy level.
The fourth period contains 18 elements beginning with potassium and ending with krypton – one element for each of the eighteen groups. It sees the first appearance of d-block (which includes transition metals) in the table. Do You Agree? Sincerely, Jocelyn E.Flowers
alkali metals / s block elements
Because in the first period, only the first energy level is being filled with electrons, which can take only a maximum of 2 electrons in the s sublevel. The electron configuration of hydrogen is 1s1 and helium is 1s2. There is no p sublevel in the first energy level.
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
The s block is located on the left side of the periodic table, corresponding to groups 1 and 2. It includes elements like hydrogen, lithium, and sodium. These elements have one or two electrons in their outermost s orbital.

The first block on the periodic table is called the S block.
