(a)
Interpretation:
Considering the spheres A and B as the atoms in the same period in the periodic table, the one which has the higher
Concept Introduction:
The elements are organized in periodic table on the basis of their electronic configuration. They are put in different groups and periods according to their atomic number. This makes the study of these compounds systematic as elements with same chemical properties fall in the same group.
(b)
Interpretation:
Considering the spheres A and B as the atoms in the same period in the periodic table, the one which has the larger ionization energy is to be identified.

(c)
Interpretation:
Considering the spheres A and B as the atoms in the same period in the periodic table, the one which gives up electron easily, is to be identified.
