How does the electronic configuration of an atom relate to its position in the Modern Periodic Table?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In the modern periodic table, atoms with similar electronic configurations are placed in the same column. In a group, the number of valence electrons remains the same. Elements across a period show an increase in the number of valence electrons.
