Q

Reactivity of elements of Group 1

A
  1. Very reactive as going down the group
  2. Eletropositivity increases
  3. Attractive force between the nucleus and the valence electron decreases
17
Q

Physical properties of elements of Group 1

A
  1. Soft metals
  2. Good conductors of heat and electricity
  3. The atomic radius increases
  4. Density increases
  5. Melting point decreases
18
Q

20
Q

Chemical properties of oxides of elements across period 3 (amphoteric oxide)

A

Non-metal oxide reacts with alkali to produce salt and water

22
Q

Physical properties of elements of Group 17

A
  1. Melting point and boiling point increases
  2. Molecular size of halogen increases and causes the intermolecular forces of attraction to become stronger.
23
Q

Chemical properties of elements of Group 17

A
  1. React with water to produce acid
  2. React with iron to form iron (III) halide
  3. React with alkali to produce two different halide salts and water
24
Q

Reactivity of elements of Group 17

A

Reactivity of Group 17 elements decreases:
1. Proton number and electrons in shell increase
2. Valence electrons in the outermost shell become further away from the nucleus
3. Force of attraction between the nucleus and valence electrons become weaker, thus electronegativity of halogen decreases

25
Q

Physical properties of elements in Group 18

A
  1. Boiling point and melting point increases
  2. Van der Waals forces increase as atomic size increases.
