The atoms of the elements in Group 13 (IIIA), the boron group, have three valence electrons, all of which are unpaired. The atoms of the elements in Group 15 (VA), the nitrogen group, have five valence electrons, three of which are unpaired.

Why s block elements are colourless?

s block elements are colorless because they do not have any unpaired electrons in their atomic orbitals to exhibit color. The absence of unpaired electrons means that these elements do not absorb visible light in the wavelength range that corresponds to color perception. As a result, s block elements appear colorless to the human eye.


Why do elements with similar properties appear at regular intervals in the periodic tabele?

Elements with similar properties appear at regular intervals in the periodic table because of their similar electron configurations. As you move across a period, the number of electrons in the outer shell increases, leading to similar chemical reactivity. Additionally, elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons, which influences their properties.


Why iodine must appear in group 7 in the periodic table?

Iodine appears in group 7 of the periodic table (halogens) because it has 7 valence electrons. This property makes it chemically similar to other elements in the group, such as fluorine, chlorine, and bromine. Grouping elements with similar chemical properties helps in organizing the periodic table.

What are the periodic table?

Periodic table comprises of elements arranged in rows and columns.So that the elements having similar properties appear together.


Do Atoms have no overall eletric charge?

Elements, as they appear on the Periodic Table, have no net charge. They all have equal numbers of protons (+) and electrons (-). HOWEVER, an atom can gain or lose electrons, which will change its charge, but, again, on the periodic table, they all have 0 charge.

Where is the transuranium elements located on the periodic table?

Transuranium elements are elements that appear after uranium. Elements with atomic number 93 to 103, appear in the actinides whereas elements with atomic number 104 to 118 appear in the 7th period.


Do the oldest know metallic elements appear at the beginning of the periodic table?

No, it is not true.


What is the relationship between the electron configuration of an element and the period in which that element appear in the periodic table?

Electron configuration is the arrangement of elements according to their increasing atomic numbers whiles period is the arrangement of elements according to the increasing number of valence electrons.
