1) Answer is: False.

A period in the periodic table is a horizontal row. For example, sodium and chlorine are in third period and they have very different properties. Sodium is solid metal and chlorine is gaseous nonmetal. Elements in the same row have the same number of electron shells, but different proporties.

2) Answer is: True.

Group is a column of elements in the periodic table. For example, lithium and sodium are in 1 group of the periodic table and they both have one valence electron.

3) Answer is: valence electrons.

For example, electron configuration of oxygen atom: ₈O 1s² 2s² 2p⁴.

Oxygen atom has six valence electrons, so it is in 16 group of Periodic table of elements.

Describe the characteristics that identify a sample of matter as being a substance.

ollegr [7]

No matter how big or little a material is, its properties remain the same. Size, form, color, and mass are the qualities that distinguish a material from non-substances. All of these qualities, including size, shape, color, and mass, can be seen and measured. Some characteristics are physical, while others are chemical. Physical characteristics include mass, volume, density, and color. Viscosity and solubility are examples of chemical qualities.

How do the properties of elements in the same column of the periodic table compare

Alik [6]

The columns of the periodic table, also referred to as "groups" contain elements with similar reactive properties, due to these elements having a similar configuration of electrons in their outer shell.

Write the chemical formula for sodium hypobromite.

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

NaOBr (or) Na⁺ ⁻OBr

Explanation:

The Oxo-Acids of Bromine are as follow,

Hypobromous Acid = HOBr

Bromous Acid = HOBrO

Bromic Acid = HBrO₃

Perbromic Acid = HBrO₄

When these acids are converted to their conjugate bases their names are as follow,

Hypobromite = ⁻OBr

Bromite = ⁻OBrO

Bromate = ⁻OBrO₂

Perbromate = ⁻OBrO₃

According to rules, the positive part of ionic compound is named first and the negative part is named second. So, Sodium Hypobromite has a chemical formula of Na⁺ ⁻OBr or NaOBr.
