Q7 How does the number of i) Valence electrons ii) valency vary on moving from left to right

1.In the second period of a periodic table

2.In the third period of a periodic table



Q8 How do atomic structures (electron arrangement) change in a period with an increase in atomic numbers, moving left to right?



Q9 This question refers to elements of the periodic table with atomic numbers from 3 to 18. In the table below, some elements are shown by letters, even though the letters are not the usual symbols of the elements.



a) Which of these is

i) a noble gas
ii) a halogen
iii) an alkali metal
iv) an element with valency 4

b) If A combines with F, what would be the formula of the resulting compound

c) What is the electronic configuration of G



Q10 Sodium and aluminium have atomic numbers 11 and 13, respectively. They are separated by one element in the periodic table and have valencies I and 3 respectively. Chlorine and potassium are also separated by one element in the periodic table (their atomic numbers being 17 and 19, respectively) and yet both have valency 1. Explain.



Q11 Helium is an unreactive gas and neon is a gas of extremely low reactivity. What, if anything, do their atoms have in common.



Q12 In which part of a group would you separately expect the elements to have

(a) the greatest metallic character?
