    NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science 
    CHEMISTRY – Periodic Classification of Elements 
     
     
     
                       NCERT ANNEXURE 
      Here are some subjective type questions and answers for your reference: 
    1.      Give reason for the need of classification of elements. 
    Ans.  The continuous discovery of new elements and their compounds led to confusions. It became difficult to 
      study, remember, and recall the properties of all the elements. Thus, the classification of elements was needed 
      to make the study of elements easier and systematic. 
     
    2.      What are the achievements of Mendeleev's periodic table? 
    Ans.  1. Elements with similar properties were grouped together which made their study easier. 
      2. He predicted the existence of some other elements and left gaps for the elements to be discovered. These 
      elements could be easily placed in the periodic table after their discovery. 
              3. Noble gases which were not discovered at that time could be placed separately without disturbing the 
      table. 
     
    3.       Define atomic radius of an element. Why does it vary along the period and group? 
    Ans.  The distance between the centre of the nucleus and the outermost shell of an isolated atom of an element is 
      called its atomic radius. 
      Variation along the period: - The atomic radius decreases as we move left to right along the period. This 
      is due to an increase in nuclear charge which tends to pull the electrons closer to the nucleus and reduces the 
      size of the atom. 
      Variation along the group: - The atomic radius increases down the group. This is because new shells are 
      being added as we go down the group. This increases the distance between the outermost shell electrons and 
      the nucleus so that the atomic size increases in spite of the increase in nuclear charge. 
     
    4.      a)  Atomic  number  is  considered  to  be  a  more  appropriate  parameter  than  atomic  mass  for 
      classification of elements in a periodic table. Why? 
              b)  Chemical reactivity of alkali metals increases while that of halogens decreases as we move from top 
      to bottom in the group. Why? 
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
            
            
            
            
            
           Ans.  a)  The properties of an element mainly depend upon its valence shell electronic configuration which, in turn 
                  depends upon the number of electrons, that can be calculated by its atomic number. Therefore, atomic 
                  number is a more appropriate parameter than atomic mass for classification of elements in a periodic table. 
                     b) Chemical reactivity of metals depends upon their tendency to lose electrons. Due to increase in atomic 
                  size on moving down the group, the tendency to lose electrons increases as the effective nuclear charge on 
                  outermost electrons decreases, therefore the chemical reactivity of metals increases down the group. 
                     Chemical reactivity of non-metals or halogens depends upon their tendency to gain or accept electrons. Due 
                  to increase in atomic size on moving down the group, the tendency to accept electrons decreases, therefore, 
                  the reactivity of halogens decreases as we move from top to bottom in a group.   
            
           5.     “Hydrogen occupies a unique position in modern periodic table”. Justify the statement. 
           Ans.  Hydrogen occupies a unique position in the modern periodic table due to following reasons: - 
                  a) Similarity with alkali metals: Both hydrogen and alkali metals have similar electronic configuration with 
                  one electron in the outermost shell. Some of the properties of hydrogen are similar to alkali metals and hence 
                  it can be placed in group I. 
                  b) Similarity with halogens: Hydrogen has outer electronic configuration similar to halogens with one 
                  electron  less  than  the  nearest  inert  gas  configuration.  Therefore  it  resembles  halogens  in  some  of  the 
                  properties and hence it can be placed in group 17 along with halogens. 
                  c) Unique properties: In some properties, it differs from both halogens and alkali metals. 
                  For example: It forms neutral oxide (H2O), neither acidic like halogens nor basic like alkali metals. 
            
                                                                        NCERT EXEMPLAR
