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.
<u>Answer:</u> Boyle's law states that gas volume is inversely proportional to pressure.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Boyle's law is one of the law used to determine the Ideal Gas equation.
This law states that pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles
Mathematically,
(at constant temperature and number of moles)
The above expression can also be written as:
where,
are initial pressure and volume of the gas
are final pressure and volume of the gas
Hence, Boyle's law states that gas volume is inversely proportional to pressure.
No, the properties of a substance are not affected by the amount of a substance.
Answer:
Gas X
Explanation:
The given reaction can be written in the form of chemical equation as shown below as:
According to law of conservation of mass, the moles of each substance in the reaction must be equal on both reactant and product side.
Also, the question asks for the gas which is diatomic. 
cannot be diatomic as the formula contains 3 atoms.
Between gas X and gas Y , <u>X has to be diatomic for the reaction to balance </u>as:
