Please solve the following:
Dear student,
(i) As we go down the group the metallic character increases.
Hence, the increasing order of metallic character is as follows-
Li < Na < K < Rb < Cs
(ii) On moving left to right in a periodic table the size decreases and on moving top to bottom in a periodic table the size increases.
All the elements given in the second question are from the third period.
So, the decreasing order of atomic size is-
Na > Mg > Si > S > Cl
For remaining queries, we request you to post them in separate threads to have rapid assistance from our experts.
