Answer: The criteria to place elements into groups and periods lies in their atomic number

Explanation:

As we know that period is the horizontal rows of elements in the periodic table and groups are vertical column of elements in the periodic table.

In a period we place those elements that have same number of shells and in a group those elements are placed that have different number of shells and the number of shells increases from top to bottom in a periodic table

For example

Sodium having symbol Na, atomic number of sodium is eleven it's electronic configuration is 1s2,2s2,2p6,3s1, next to it in a period is places potassium having symbol,K, it's electronic configuration is 1s2,2s2,2p6,3s2.

Sodium and potassium both r placed in a period not in a group because both of these have same outer most shell, only the number of electron in outer most shell varies.

How much heat is required to raise the temperature of 250.0 g of mercury by 52 degrees * C with a specific heat of 4.18
Goryan [66]
Heat required = M * C * (delta T)
= (Mass)*(Specific heat)*(temperature change)
= 250 * 4.18* 52 = 54340Joules.

I solve when unit of specific heat is (J/gC) if have another unit please tell me
