Elements with the lowest ionization energies are found in the bottom left portion of the Periodic Table, primarily in Group 1 (alkali metals) and Group 2 (alkaline earth metals). This is because these elements have larger atomic radii and fewer protons relative to their electron cloud, making it easier to remove an outer electron. As you move down a group, the ionization energy decreases due to increased electron shielding and distance from the nucleus.
No, more than three-fourths of the elements are metals. Love, Grahamcracker
At the time the 63 elements were known, most of them were solids. Metals, which make up a significant portion of the periodic table, are typically solid at room temperature. A few elements, such as mercury and bromine, were known to be liquids, while only a handful, like oxygen and nitrogen, existed as gases under standard conditions.
In the solid portion of the Earth, the most abundant elements are oxygen and silicon, which combine to form silicate minerals. Other significant elements include aluminum, iron, calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium. These elements make up the majority of the Earth's crust and mantle, contributing to its overall composition and geological processes.
The lithosphere is not found on the periodic table of elements. It is the rigid outer layer of the Earth composed of the crust and upper portion of the mantle, primarily made of silicate rocks. The lithosphere is divided into several large tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them.
After ionization, hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) in aqueous solution primarily dissociates to form hydrosulfide ions (HS⁻) and hydrogen ions (H⁺). The ionization can be represented as: H₂S ⇌ HS⁻ + H⁺. This equilibrium indicates that H₂S can act as a weak acid, and its dissociation is influenced by the pH of the solution. In a typical aqueous environment, some H₂S remains un-ionized, while a portion exists as HS⁻ and H⁺ ions.

The three families that are found in the center portion of the periodic table are the Iron group, the Cobalt group and the nickel group. There are 18 families in the periodic table.
Question is missing the multiple choice portion.
Most elements are metals.
No, most elements are metals. The majority of elements on the periodic table are classified as metals, with properties like luster, conductivity, and malleability. Non-metals and metalloids make up a smaller portion of the elements.
Most elements in the periodic table fall under the category of metals. Metals typically exhibit properties such as good conductivity, malleability, and ductility. Within the periodic table, about 75% of the elements are classified as metals, which include groups like alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition metals, and lanthanides. Nonmetals and metalloids make up a smaller portion of the elements.
No. There are much more metallic elements than non metallic elements. All of Group 1, 2 and 5 are metals. All of the transition metals (inc. Lanthanides and Actinides) are metals. Also, most elements in group 6 and 7 are metals.
C is a nonmetal. It is found in the upper right portion of the periodic table and typically forms covalent bonds with other elements.

Besides the periodic table, an electron chart of the elements exists. The periodic table shows the broad outline. The electron chart goes into greater detail. The periodic table lists elements according to electrons in their outer shell. As elements get more massive they get more protons and electrons. Each time they add a proton, they jump one notch in the periodic table. When they add the electron, it is a valence electron and it affects the chemical properties. There comes a point when elements start adding electrons when the electrons are not added to the outer shell with the other electrons in the valence shell. The chemical properties do not change as the elements get heavier. It is extremely difficult to use chemistry to separate the elements in that group. If you had an electron chart, you would see the electrons followed a different pattern. That is why the lanthanides and actinides are set apart from the other elements on the periodic table. According to their chemical properties, they would all need to be put into one box.
