Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The pair of elements that is expected to have similar chemical properties has to be chosen from the given options.
Concept Introduction:
Periodic law states that if the elements are arranged in increasing order of
Location of an element in a periodic table can be given by the period number and the group number. The horizontal row in a periodic table where the elements are present is known as Period. The vertical column in a periodic table where the elements are present is known as Group.
Chemical properties of the elements repeat themselves at regular intervals because of the electronic configuration. The elements that are present in a Group have similar chemical properties. This is because the outer-shell electronic configuration will be the same.
