Answer: C. Metals are found on the left side of the periodic table.

Explanation:

The periodic table contains vertical columns called as groups and horizontal rows called as periods.

Period 2 contains 8 elements which are lithium, beryllium , boron , carbon, nitrogen, oxygen , fluorine and neon. Only Lithium and beryllium are metals.

Group 18 contains all the noble gases which are all non metals.

Metals are the elements which loose electrons easily and form positive ions. Non-metals are the elements which can gain electrons easily and form negative ions.

Metals are present on left side of the periodic table and as we move to right side of the periodic table , the metallic character decreases and thus non metals are found on the right side of the periodic table.

According to Boyle’s law, For a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, P (pressure) and V (volume) are inversely proportional.

Therefore,

$P_{1} V_{1} =P_{2} V_{2}$
