neon

∙ 12y agoAny of the noble gases. They are inert due to having a full valence shell and so are under no pressure to lose/gain electrons through bonding.
Argon, for example.

What is the basis for the organization of the modern periodic table is?
The modern periodic table does a lot of things. It organizes elements in order of electron orbitals for one thing (1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, ect..). It also has all noble gases stacked on top of each other helping to determine the columns of 1-8 valence electrons. It seperates all metals from nonmetals and elements in the same column will have similar physical and chemical properties.
How does sulfur forms its ion?
ions are formed based upon the valence electrons of the element and if the element is a metal or a nonmetal. S has 6 valence electrons and needs 2 more to be stable. it is a nonmetal. therefore, taking on 2 electrons gives S a -2 charge
Why will no one ever find an element between sulfur and chlorine?
Elements are distinguished based on their number of protons. Chlorine has exactly one proton more than sulfur. Since there cannot be fractions of protons, there can be no element between sulfur and chlorine on the periodic table.
How can chemists state with certainty that no one will discover an element between sulfur and chlorine?

What can you infer about the number of electrons in the outermost electron cloud of a silicon atom based on silicons position on the periodic table?
Silicon is in Group 14, and all members of Group 14 have 4 electrons in the outermost energy level, or valence shell (14-10). Also, silicon is in the second column of the p-block on the periodic table. All members of the p-block have a valence shell of ns2np1-6, where n is the outermost, or highest energy level. Since silicon is in the second column of the p-block, and it is in period 3, its electron configuration is [Ne]3s23p2, in which the outermost, or highest energy level, or valence shell is the 3rd energy level, which contains 4 electrons.
What element is not properly located on the periodic table based on the three main regions?
Hydrogen is placed separately. It has one valence electron. It is placed at the top in periodic table.
How can you determined the number of valance electrons by looking at the periodic table?
Elements are located on the periodic table based off of their atomic number, but the vertical columns they are in (groups) show how many valence electrons they have. If an element were in Group 3 of the periodic table, it would have 3 valence electrons, and so on. This doesn't apply to the Transition Metals, so one should skip straight to Group 14, where the elements all have 4 valence electrons. Group 15 has 5, Group 16, 6, etc. The one exception to this is Helium, which is in Group 18 but only has 2.
The periodic table is based on an element's what?
The periodic table is based on an element's number of atoms. The elements are arranged from least to most number of atoms.
How did the periodic table get its name?
Based on the periodicity of the elements regarding properties, reactivity, valence electrons, etc.
Is the periodic table arranged based on an element's atomic number?
yes
What is one element based on of the periodic table of elements?
It is based on the number of protons in one atom.
How does the modern periodic arrange the elements?
The modern Periodic Table arranges elements based on properties. These properties include valence electrons of the elements and density for example.
What predicts an element's properties?
The answer you are probably looking for is the periodic table, which arranges the elements. The periodic table can help predict properties of an element based on the element's location. All the elements in a veritcle collum (also known as family or group) will have the same number of valence electrons and thus behave in a similar manner. Elements can also be compared to one another on the horizontal axis(the period). i.e. moving from left to right elements become less metalic and do not exibit metallic properties as stongly. General location on the table can tell you what type of element it is; metal, nonmetal, metalloid/semimetal. or the # of protons and electrons in the element, the atomic mass.
Does each family in the periodic table has its own charicteristic properties based upon its number of valence electrons?
yes
How are element placed in periodic table based on electronic configuration?
Least to highest
Each family in the periodic table has its characteristic properties based on the number of?
valence electrons
The order of element in the periodic table is base on what?
It is based on the number of protons in one atom.
