Why do the chemical properties cycle through each period?

Chemistry
2 answers:
RSB [31]3 years ago

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A period is represented by a horizontal line as we move from left to right in a periodic table.

Since, number of electrons keep on adding into the elements while we move in a period. Therefore, number of valence electrons also increases in a period and when the valence shell of last element of a period gets completely filled then the cycle repeats itself.

And elements with same number of valence electrons will show same chemical properties.

Thus, we can conclude that the chemical properties cycle through each period because each period represents a cycle of completing the outer electron shell.

The correct answer would be the third option. The chemical properties cycle through each period because the atoms' outermost shells having two or more electron shells cannot have more than eight electrons. This is following the octet rule.

Explain whether or not you expect the chaparral biome to be sensitive to the loss of a single species.
aleksley [76]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The chaparral biome is a temperate biome with a characteristic high temperature and dryness during summer and mild rainy winters and springs. The biome can be found in relatively small amounts in the major continents of the world with its rich plant and animal diversity who have successfully adapted to the conditions of the biome.

Due to the high biodiversity of the chaparral biome, <u>one would expect it to be resilient to the loss of a single species.</u> <em>The more the biodiversity of a biome or community, the more resilient such biome or community would be to the loss of species and lower the biodiversity, the more sensitive the community would be to the loss of species. </em>

would you expect potassium to have a high electronegativity or a low electronegativity? explain your answer
GalinKa [24]

A low electronegativity

Explanation:

Potassium is a metal that is expected to have a very low electronegativity value.

Electronegativity is the relative tendency by which an atom attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond.

Potassium is an element in the first group on the periodic table.

The common trend is that electronegativity increases from left to right and decreases down a group.

  • Potassium as metal will prefer to lose electrons rather than attracting because that will make it achieve the octet configuration that will ensure its stability.
  • This is why it will have low electronegativity.
