IIIIIIIVVVIVIIO
1L
2QEGJZM
3R
4T

(i) State the number of valence electrons in atom J.
(ii) Which element shown forms ions with a single negative charge?
(iii) Which metallic element is more reactive than R?
(iv) Which element has it’s electrons arranged in four shells?

Answer

(i) Atom J has 5 valence electrons as it belongs to the fifth group in the periodic table.

(ii) M forms ions with a single negative charge as it has 7 electrons in the valence shell and obtaining one more electron completes it’s octet.

(iii) Metal T is more reactive than R because elements at the bottom of the group are more reactive.

(iv) T has it’s electrons arranged in 4 shells as it belongs to 4th period.

Periodic table

With reference to group 1 [IA] of the periodic table – fill in the blanks with the correct word:
The elements are …………… [light/heavy] …………… [metals/non metals] since their atomic size is …………… [large/small]. The energy binding the atoms is …………… [high/low] and hence the elements have …………… [high/low] melting points. The melting points of the elements …………… [increases/decreases] down the subgroup. The electropositive character …………… [increases/decreases] down the subgroup and the elements are strong …………… [reducing/oxidizing] agents. The element with electronic configuration 2, 8, 1 will have …………… [higher/lower] electron affinity and …………… [smaller/larger] atomic size than the element with electronic configuration 2, 1.
