Rohan Singh answered |
For Sodium Na - 2,8,1 and chlorine Cl-2,8,7. Both Na and Cl require 1 electron either to loose or to gain ,so they can attain stable configuration. Therefore Na has +1 and Cl -1 valency. Valence electrons are the outermost electrons, and are the ones involved in bonding.

Geetika Shah answered |
In Na2O oxidation state of Na is +1.
It gains 2 electrons so, the oxidation state is +1 which is equal to one oxygen atom (2 electrons)
It gains 2 electrons so, the oxidation state is +1 which is equal to one oxygen atom (2 electrons)

Anoushka Yadav answered |
Lothar Meyer proposed the periodic table in 1864. He arranged the elements in order of increasing atomic weights. He noticed that similarities appeared in both physical and chemical properties of the elements. The correct answer is option 'C' which means similarities appear in both physical and chemical properties.
Explanation:
The periodic table arranges the elements in a way that helps in understanding their properties. The modern periodic table is based on the electronic configuration of the elements. But the original periodic table was based on the atomic weight of the elements. Lothar Meyer was the first to realize that there is a periodicity in the properties of the elements when they are arranged in order of increasing atomic weights.
Physical properties are those that can be observed or measured without changing the chemical composition of the substance. Some examples of physical properties are:
- Melting point
- Boiling point
- Density
- Electrical conductivity
- Thermal conductivity
- Atomic radius
- Ionic radius
- Electronegativity
Chemical properties are those that can be observed during a chemical reaction. Some examples of chemical properties are:
- Reactivity with acids
- Reactivity with oxygen
- Reactivity with water
- Reduction potential
- Oxidation potential
Meyer observed that when the elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic weights, there is a periodicity in their physical and chemical properties. This means that elements with similar atomic weights have similar physical and chemical properties. For example, lithium, sodium, and potassium have similar physical and chemical properties because they all belong to the same group and have similar atomic weights.
Conclusion:

Basic oxides are always oxides of metals. They combine with water to form bases which are usually called metal hydroxides. Na2O, MgO, CaO, FeO and CuO are examples of basic oxides. Acidic oxides are mostly oxides of non-metals, and they dissolve in water to form acids.

The answer is c.
The total number of electrons that can be accommodated in seventh period are 2 ( in 7s) + 14(in 5f) + 10(in 6d )+ 6(in 7p) = 32. The maximum number of elements present in it is 32.

EduRev NEET answered |
Sodium forms a basic oxide because it is a metal. Metals generally form basic oxides because they tend to donate electrons to oxygen atoms. In the case of sodium, when it reacts with oxygen, it forms sodium oxide, in which each sodium atom donates one electron to oxygen. This results in the formation of sodium ions (Na+) and oxide ions (O2-), which can combine to form the ionic compound sodium oxide. Sodium oxide is basic because it can react with water to form a solution of sodium hydroxide, a strong base.

Shivani Tiwari answered |
In option D, after removal of second valence electron from 3s orbital, the ion formed achieves noble gas configuration. Therefore, to remove the third electron from 2p orbital, a lot of energy is required. Thus, there is an abnormally high difference between second and third ionization enthalpies.

Geetika Shah answered |
According to the electronic configuration of sodium(Na),it has 1 valence electron(2,8,1).So it loses one electron to form a cation and becomes sodium cation (Na+).As it loses one electron ,the outermost shell has 0 electrons (i.e it gets eliminated ) and Na+ has only 2 shells. Hence, it lost one of its shell, the sodium ion is smaller than the sodium atom.

Krishna Iyer answered |
The number of elements in each period is twice the number of atomic orbitals available in the energy level that is being filled.
Let's understand it by taking the elements of the 4th period.
In the fourth period, there are 18 elements. The types of subshells used in the 4th period are s, p, and d.
Number of orbitals of s subshell = 1
Number of orbitals of p subshell = 3
Number of orbitals of d subshell = 5
Total number of orbitals = 9
The total number of elements is 18 i.e. twice the total number of orbitals.

Mohit Rajpoot answered |
Ionic hydrides are commonly known as saline hydrides or pseudohalides. These compounds form between hydrogen and the most active metals, especially with the alkali and alkaline-earth metals of group one and two elements.
In this group, the hydrogen acts as the hydride ion (H−). They bond with more electropositive metal atoms. Ionic hydrides are usually binary compounds (i.e., only two elements in the compound) and are also insoluble in solutions. Now I hope you can form your own examples, but common examples are Sodium Hydride (NaH), Lithium hydride (LiH), Potassium hydride (KH) etc.

- Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons in their outermost shell, hence, have similar properties.
- Elements in the same period don't have same number of valence electrons, hence, have different properties. But, elements in the same period have same number of shells.

- Although widely used in the chemical community on all levels, from chemistry classrooms to advanced textbooks, the recommendations were mostly ignored among scientists in the field, who called it element 111, with the symbol of E111, (111) or even simply 111.

Introduction:
In order to determine which element is highly electropositive among the elements with atomic numbers 9, 12, 16, and 36, we need to understand the concept of electronegativity and how it relates to electropositivity. Electronegativity is a measure of an atom's ability to attract electrons towards itself in a chemical bond. Electropositivity, on the other hand, is the tendency of an atom to lose electrons and form positive ions. Therefore, an element with low electronegativity and high electropositivity will readily lose electrons and form positive ions.
Explanation:
Let's analyze each element and its electropositivity based on their atomic numbers:
Element with atomic number 9 (Fluorine):
Fluorine is a halogen and has a high electronegativity. It readily gains an electron to achieve a stable electron configuration. Therefore, it is not highly electropositive.
Element with atomic number 12 (Magnesium):
Magnesium is an alkaline earth metal and has a low electronegativity. It readily loses its two valence electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. Therefore, it is highly electropositive.
Element with atomic number 16 (Sulfur):
Sulfur is a nonmetal and has a moderate electronegativity. It can gain or lose electrons depending on the reaction conditions. However, it is not highly electropositive as it tends to gain electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
Element with atomic number 36 (Krypton):
Krypton is a noble gas and has a very high electronegativity. It has a stable electron configuration and tends not to lose or gain electrons. Therefore, it is not highly electropositive.
Conclusion:
Based on the analysis, the element with atomic number 12 (Magnesium) is highly electropositive among the elements with atomic numbers 9, 12, 16, and 36. It has a low electronegativity and readily loses its two valence electrons to form a stable 2+ ion.

1st period contains only 2 elements hydrogen and helium having atomic no. 1 and 2 respectively.
The electronic configuration of hydrogen is 1s1 while that of helium is 1s2. Both contain only s subshell. S subshell that only contains 1 orbital i.e. z.
Thus, 1st period has 1 orbital.

Om Desai answered |
Density: Li < Na < K < Rb.
The density of K is lower than that of Na. Thus, option D is incorrect. The correct trend is
Li < K < Na < Rb
The density of K is lower than that of Na. Thus, option D is incorrect. The correct trend is
Li < K < Na < Rb

The elements of "s" and "p" blocks except "d" group elements are called as representative elements. Their outer shells are not completely filled with electrons. The elements get the nearest inert gas configuration by losing or gaining or sharing of electrons.
