CHEM _ PERIODIC TABLE

1. Define the following terms :


(i) Ionisation potential
(ii) Electron affinity
[2M]

2. The following table shows the electronic configuration of the elements W, X, Y, Z:

Answer the following question based on the table above:


1. X and Z 2. W and X
[2M]

3. An element has an atomic number 16. State


(i) the period to which it belongs.
(ii) the number of valence electrons.
(iii) whether it is a metal or non-metal
[3M]

4. Give reasons:
(i) The oxidising power of elements increases on moving from left to right along a period
in the periodic table.
(ii) Ionisation potential of the element increases across a period.
(iii) Alkali metals are good reducing agents.
[3M]
5. Use the letters only written in the Periodic Table given below to answer the questions
that follow :

(i) State the number of valence electrons in atom J.


(ii) Which element has shown forms ions with a single negative charge?
(iii) Which metallic element is more reactive than R?
(iv) Which element has its electrons arranged in four shells?
[4M]

6. Arrange the following as per the instructions given in the brackets


(i) Cs, Na, Li, K, Rb (increasing order of metallic character).
(ii) Mg, Cl, Na, S, Si (decreasing order of atomic size).
(iii) Na, K, Cl, S, Si (increasing order ionization energy).
(iv)Cl, F, Br, I (increasing order of electron affinity).
[4M]

7. Consider the section of the periodic table given below :


Note : In this table B does not represent boron,C does not represent carbon ,F
does not represent fluorine, H does not represent hydrogen, K does not represent
potassium.
You must see the position of the element in the periodic table. Some elements are given
in their own symbol and position in the periodic table, while others are shown with a
letter. With reference to the table:
(i) Which is the most electronegative?
(ii) How many valence electrons are present in G?
(iii) Write the formula of the compound between B and H.
(iv) In the compound between F and J, what type of bond will be formed?
(v) Draw the electron dot structure for the compound formed between C and K.
[5M]

8. For the following questions refer to the periodic table:


(a) (i)Name the first and last element in period 2.
(ii)What happens to the atomic size of elements moving from top to bottom of a group?
(iii) Which of the elements has the greatest electron affinity among the halogens?
(iv) What is the common feature of the electronic configurations of the elements in
group 17?

(b) Supply the missing word from those in the brackets (Do not write the sentence)
(i)If an element has a low ionisation energy then it is likely to be _____ (metallic/non-
metallic).
(ii)If an element has seven electrons in its outermost shell then it is likely to have the
_____ (largest/smallest) atomic size among all the elements in the same period.

(c) (i) The metals of group 2 from top to bottom are : Be, Mg, Ca, Ba. Which of these
metals will form ions most readily and why?
(ii)What property of an element is measured by electronegativity?
[5M]

9.Answer the following questions regarding group 17 i.e., halogens of the periodic table.
(i) What are halogens?
(ii) Which group and sub-group are they placed in?
(iii) What is their valency?
(iv) Why are they called halogens?
(v) Why do they not occur free in nature?
[5M]

10. Distinguish between metals and non metals


[2M]
