Explanation:
On the whole, the metals burn in oxygen to form a simple metal oxide. Beryllium is reluctant to burn unless it is in the form of dust or powder. Beryllium has a very strong (but very thin) layer of beryllium oxide on its surface, and this prevents any new oxygen getting at the underlying beryllium to react with it
A field of interest to them may be Climatology. =)
Answer:
Explanation:
Columns and rows used in the periodic classification of elements shows trends in the properties of elements.
The periodic columns are called groups and they denote vertical arrangement of elements.
The horizontal rows are the periods.
- Groups and Periods provides a very simple way to classify elements.
- They reflect trends among different elements that are found in nature. Following these groups and periods, it is even possible to predict the nature of an undiscovered element.
- Certain parts of the table have some unique elements on them with some distinctive properties that distinguish them from others.
- The atomic number is the basis of this classification. By this, it is possible to delineate that elements with similar properties are located on the same group.
