One property is it's volume. I am not sure if the second
a ceramic or metal container in which metals or other substances may be melted or subjected to very high temperatures.
"the crucible tipped and the mold filled with liquid metal"
a situation of severe trial, or in which different elements interact, leading to the creation of something new.
"their relationship was forged in the crucible of war"
The elements in the periodice table are not listed in alphabetical order, because the arragement in rows (periods) and columns (groups or familes), in increasing order of atomic number (number of protons of the atoms) permits to explain similarities among the elements, trend in some properties, and even predict properties of unknown elements.
For example, the elements of the first group (family), called alkaline metals, all have 1 valence electron, have similar physical properties (ductibility, malleability, luster, thermal and electricity conductivity), react in similar way with water, show a trend in the atomic radii and in the ionization energy.
You can tell similar stories for other groups like, alkalyne earth metals, halogens and noble gases.
You can also tell trends in electroneativities, and atomic radii, for a row of elements, as per the order they are in the row.
So, the current array resulted very helpul for chemists to explain and predict the behavior and properties of the elements.
Answer:-
People with diabetes must monitor their blood glucose levels constantly.
Blood glucose levels are nowadays measured by the help of enzyme glucose oxidase. The enzyme glucose oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of glucose to gluconic acid.
By this way all of the glucose is measured at one time. At the same time hydrogen peroxide is produced.
The hydrogen peroxide reacts with a second color producing chemical. The concentration of the glucose can be related to the intensity of color produced
