Concise Chemistry Class 10 : Periodic Table Exercise Intext 1 1. (i) State modern periodic law. Modern periodic law : "The properties of elements are the periodic functions of their atomic number." (ii) Name the scientist who stated the law. Answer : Henry Moseley stated the modern periodic law. (iii) How many groups and periods does modern periodic table have? Answer : Modern Periodic table has 7 periods and 18 groups. 2. What are horizontal rows and vertical columns in a periodic table known as? Answer : The horizontal rows are known as periods and vertical columns in the periodic table are known as groups. 3. Periodicity is observed due to the similar............. (number of valence electrons/ atomic number/ electronic configuration) Answer : Periodicity is observed due to the similar electronic configuration. 4. How does electronic configuration in atoms change (i) In a period from left to right? (ii) In a group top to bottom? Answer : (i) In a period from left to right, the number of shells remain the same but number of valence electrons increases by one. K L e.g. Li (3) : 2 1 Be (4) : 2 2 (ii) In a group top to bottom, the number of shells increases successively i.e. one by one but the number of valence electrons remains the same. K L M e.g. Li (3) : 2 1 Na (4) : 2 8 1 5. Name 2 elements in each case : (i) Alkali metals Answer : Lithium (Li) and Sodium (Na) (ii) Alkaline earth metals Answer : Magnesium (Mg) and Calcium (Ca) (iii) Halogens Answer : Fluorine (F) and Chlorine (Cl) (iv) Inert gas Answer : Helium (He) and Neon (Ne) 6. Elements of group 1 and elements of group 17 both have valency 1. Explain. Answer : Valency is the combining capacity of the atom of an element. It is equal to the number of electrons an atom can donate or accept or share. Valency depends on the number of electrons in the outermost shell (i.e. valence shell). Group -1 elements have 1 electron in their outermost orbital, while Group-17 elements have 7 electrons in their outermost orbital. Group -1 elements can donate one electron while combining with other elements to obtain a stable electronic configuration and hence they have valency = 1. On the other hand, Group -17 elements can accept 1 electron from the combining atom to obtain a stable electronic configuration and hence they have valency =( 8 – 7) = 1 7. Correct the statements. (i) Elements in the same period have equal valency. Answer : Elements in the same group have equal valency. (ii) Valency depends upon the number of shells in an atom. Answer : Valency depends upon the number of valence electrons in an atom. (iii) Copper and zinc are representative elements. Answer : Copper and zinc are transition elements. (iv) Transition elements are placed at the extreme right of the periodic table. Answer : Noble gases are placed at the extreme right of the periodic table. 8. What do you understand by? (i) Periodicity Periodicity : The properties that reappear at regular intervals, or in which there is a gradual variation at regular intervals, are called periodic properties and the phenomenon is known as the periodicity of elements. (ii) Typical elements Typical elements : The third-period elements, Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S and Cl summarize the properties of their respective groups and are called typical elements. (iii) Orbits Orbits : Electrons revolve around the nucleus in certain definite circular paths called orbits or shells. 9. Name 2 elements you would expect to show chemical reactions similar to calcium. What is the basis of your choice? Answer : Beryllium and magnesium will show similar chemical reactions as calcium. Since these elements belong to same group 2 and also have two electrons in their outermost shell like calcium. 10. Name the (i) metals, (ii) metalloids and (iii) non-metals in the first twenty elements. Answer : (i) Metals : Lithium, Beryllium, Sodium, Magnesium, Aluminium, Potassium, Calcium (ii) Metalloids : Boron, Silicon (iii) Non-metals : Hydrogen, Helium, Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Neon, Phosphorous, Sulphur, Chlorine, Argon 11. Fluorine, Chlorine and Bromine are put in one group on the basis of their similar properties. (i) What are those similar properties? Similar Properties : a) They are non-metals with seven valence electrons. b) They have the highest electronegativity, ionisation potentials and electron affinity in the respective periods. c) They exist as diatomic molecules (F , Cl , Br ). 2 2 2 d) They form ionic compounds with alkali metals( e.g. NaCl, KF, KBr). (ii) What is the common name of this group or family? Answer : The common name of this group or family is halogens i.e. Salt-forming. 12. What is the main characteristic of the last element in each period of the Periodic Table? What is the general name of such elements? Answer : # The main characteristic of the last element in each period of the periodic table is they are inert or chemically unreactive. ## The general name of such elements is 'Noble gases'. 13. According to atomic structure, what determines which element will be the first and which will be the last in a period? Answer : According to atomic structure, the number of valence electrons determines the first and the last element in a period. For first element in a period, the number of valence electron is 1 and the last element in a period, the number of valence electron is 8. (except for He, it is 2) 14. How does the number of : i.
