Answer:
Increasing atomic number - True
Explanation:
The modern table is based on Mendeleev’s table, except the modern table arranges the elements by increasing atomic number instead of atomic mass.
The Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom, and this number is unique for each element. For example, Hydrogen has an atomic number of 1, Calcium has an atomic number of 20.
In the modern periodic table the elements are further arranged into:
- rows, called periods, in order of increasing atomic number. Elements in the same periods have the same number of shells.
- vertical columns, called groups, where the elements have similar properties. Elements in the same group has the same number of valency (outermost number of electrons)
Yes it could, but you'd have to set up the process very carefully.
I see two major challenges right away:
1). Displacement of water would not be a wise method, since rock salt
is soluble (dissolves) in water. So as soon as you start lowering it into
your graduated cylinder full of water, its volume would immediately start
to decrease. If you lowered it slowly enough, you might even measure
a volume close to zero, and when you pulled the string back out of the
water, there might be nothing left on the end of it.
So you would have to choose some other fluid besides water ... one in
which rock salt doesn't dissolve. I don't know right now what that could
be. You'd have to shop around and find one.
2). Whatever fluid you did choose, it would also have to be less dense
than rock salt. If it's more dense, then the rock salt just floats in it, and
never goes all the way under. If that happens, then you have a tough
time measuring the total volume of the lump.
So the displacement method could perhaps be used, in principle, but
it would not be easy.
