Element at Extreme Left In Periodic Table:
                                                                   The elements of Group I-A (1) are present at extreme left of the periodic table. They are called as Alkali Metals. Alkali Metals are strong metals. These elements can easily loose their valence electron. The valence shell electronic configuration of these elements is,

                                                     ns¹

where n is principle quantum number, which shows main energy level or shell. These metals can gain Noble gas configuration (stable configuration) either by loosing one electron or by gaining seven or more electrons. As it is quite reasonable to loose one electron instead of gaining seven or more electrons so these element easily loose one electron to gain noble as configuration. The Metallic character decreases along the period from left to right. So Group II-A (2) are second most metallic elements and so on. These metals at extreme left mainly exist in solid form.

Element at Extreme Right In Periodic Table:
                                                                     Elements present at extreme right of the periodic table lacks the properties of metallic character and act as non-Metals. They have almost complete outermost shell or have the deficiency of one or two electrons. They are not as hard as metallic elements and they exist with complete octet like in Noble gases, or deficient with one electron (Halogens) or two electrons (oxygen group). These elements tend to gain or accept electron if their valence shell is deficient with required number of elements. Like the valence electronic configuration of Halogens is,

                                                   ns², np⁵

So, Halogens readily accept one electron and attain noble gas configuration. Elements at extreme left exist mainly in gas phase.

An Equilibrium with Cobalt Complex Ions.Investigate the equilibrium between two different complex ions of cobalt. The reaction i
Paladinen [302]
  • The change in color from blue to pink of the cobalt complexes here has been the basis of cobalt chloride indicator papers for the detection of the presence of water. It is also used in self-indicating silica gel desiccant granules.
  • Pink cobalt species + chloride ions ⇌ Blue cobalt species + water molecules

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • The adjustment in color from blue to the pink of the cobalt complexes here has been the premise of cobalt chloride indicator papers for the detection of the presence of water. It is likewise utilized in self-demonstrating silica gel desiccant granules.  

Pink cobalt species + chloride particles ⇌ Blue cobalt species + water molecules  

  • The response of [Co(H2O)6]2+(aq) + 4Cl–(aq) → [CoCl4]2–(aq) + 6H2O(l) is endothermic. In this manner, as per Le Chatelier's rule, when the temperature is raised, the situation of the balance will move to one side, shaping a greater amount of the blue complex particle at the expense of the pink species.  
  • Including concentrated hydrochloric raises the chloride particle fixation, making the equilibrium move to one side, as per Le Chatelier. Including water brings down the chloride particle fixation, moving the equilibrium the other way.
  • As an extension, it is conceivable to show that it is the Cl–particles in the hydrochloric acid that move the balance by including a spatula of sodium chloride rather than the pink arrangement. This delivers a bluer color, however, this may take some time because the salt is delayed to dissolve.

Which of the following statements is true?
Lera25 [3.4K]

The  statement  which is true is

metals  lose  electrons  to become cations

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

  • metals tends  to loss electrons to attain  noble gas  electrons  configuration.
  • When metal loses electrons they form a  positive charged ions.
  • The positively charged ion is known as  cations.
  • for  example  sodium metal (Na)  loses  1 electron to form   a cation with  a charge  of positive 1 ( Na^+)
