The first element in a group of p-block of the periodic table often displays different physical and chemical properties from the heavier members of the group. In the light of this statement give comparative explanations for the following:
Nature of oxides of boron and aluminum

The first element in a group of p-block of the periodic table often displays different physical and chemical properties from the heavier members of the group. In the light of this statement give comparative explanations for the following: Action of water on C Cl_4 and SiCl_4

Why do elements in the same period have different physical and chemical properties? What about elements in the same group?

The first member of the p-block elements differs from the remaining members of their corresponding groups due to

A group of elements in the Periodic Table are given pelow (Boron is the first member of the group and Thallium is the last). Boron Aluminium Gallium Indium Thallium Answer the following questions in relation to the above group of elements : If the electronic configuration of Aluminium is 2, 8, 3, how many electrons are there in the outer shell of Thallium ?

The first element of the group 1 and 2 are different from other members of the respective group.Their behaviour is more similar to the second element of the following groups,What is this relationship known as ?

The statement that is false for the long form of the periodic table is : 1. it reflects the sequence of filling of electrons in the order of sub energy levels s, p, d, f 2. it helps to predict the stable valency states of the elements 3. it reflects trends in physical and chemical properties of the elements 4. it helps to predict the relative ionocity of the bond between any two elements.

The heavier members of 13 and 14 groups besides the group oxidation state also show another oxidation state. Down the group (darr) , the stability of higher oxidation state increases. This concept which is commonly called inert pair effect has been used to explain many physical and chemical properties of the element of these groups. The strongest reductant amoung the following is

The heavier members of 13 and 14 groups besides the group oxidation state also show another oxidation state. Down the group (darr) , the stability of higher oxidation state increases. This concept which is commonly called inert pair effect has been used to explain many physical and chemical properties of the element of these groups. Which of the following acts as the strongest acid ?

This concept which is commonly called inert pair effect has been used to explain many physical and chemical properties of the element of these groups. Which among the following is the strongest oxidising agent ?
