In the modern periodic table, the elements are arranged in the order of :

In the modern periodic table, the elements are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic number. This arrangement is based on the modern periodic law, which states that the properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic numbers. In the modern periodic table, each column is called a group and each row is called a period. Elements within the same group show similarity and gradation in properties. This is due to the same number of electroms in the outermost shell . Based on the above paragraph, answer the following question: State the law on which modern periodic table is based.

  • Comprehension given below is followed by some multiple choice questions. Each question has one correct option. Choose the correct option. In the modern periodic table elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic numbers which is related to the electronic configuration . Depending upon the type of orbitals receiving the last electron the elements in the periodic table have been divided into four blocks viz, s, p, d and f. The modern periodic table consists of 7 periods and 18 groups. Each period begins with the filling of a new energy shell . In accordance with the aufbau principle, the seven periods (1 to 7) have 2,8,8 ,18,18, 32 and 32 elements respectively . To avoid the periodic table being too long the series of f-block elements called lanthanoids and actinoids are placed at the bottom of the main body of the periodic table.

  • In the modern period table, elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number which is related to the electric configuration. Depending upon the type of orbitals receving the last electron, the elements in the periodic table have been diviced into four blocks viz s,p,d and f. The modern periodic table consists of 7 periods and 18 groups. Each period being with the filling of a new energy shell. In according with the Aufbua principle, the seven periods (1 to 7) have 2,8, 8, 18, 18, 32 and 32 elements respectively. The seventh period is still incomplete.
