Answer:

Explanation:

The changes in properties from metals to non-metals on a periodic table can be measured and determined by the metallicity or electropositivity of elements.

Metallicity is a measure of the tendency of atoms of an element to lose electrons.

a.

Down a periodic group, metallicity increases.

b.

Across a period from left to right electropositivity or metallicity decreases.

Metals are found in the left part of periodic table and the most reactive metal sits in the lower left corner. Non-metals are towards the right side of the table.

Which of the following best explains the position of the two atoms in the periodic table? (4 points)
Nesterboy [21]

The position of a given element in the periodic table depends on the atomic number.  Further the atomic number is equal to the number of protons and the number of electrons of the particular element.

Also for the considered element, depending on the atomic number, the placement in the periodic table will create groups (columns) and periods (rows).

As a example we will take two atoms carbon (C) and nitrogen (N):

carbon (C) - has a atomic number of 6, it contains 6 protons and 6 electrons, and you find this element in the group 14 and period 2 in the periodic table

nitrogen (N) -  has a atomic number of 7, it contains 7 protons and 7 electrons, and you find this element in the group 15 and period 2 in the periodic table
