The last-Hypothesis Experiment
Answer:
The periodic table is organized into groups (columns) and periods (rows).
Explanation:
The periodic table is organized into groups (columns) and periods (rows). The first ones contain those elements that have the same valence and have similar characteristics to each other. Example: group IA have valence 1 (they require 1 electron to reach the octet). The exception to this are the noble gases located in the last group to the right of the table, which have already filled their last energy level.
Periods have elements that have the same number of orbitals and have different properties; although the masses are similar.
Answer:
It turns out that many materials can be a solid at a higher temperature if the pressure is also higher.

Explanation:
The reactivity of metals has a lot to do with their position in the electrochemical series. However, it is also known that metallic character decreases across the period. This implies that as we move from left to right along the periodic table. Sodium, magnesium, aluminum and silicon continues to decrease in metallic character. As a matter of fact, silicon is a metalloid and not a pure metal.
Sodium reacts with cold water to give a vigorous reaction,magnesium and aluminium reacts with steam at red heat.
Silicon does not react with water, even as steam, under normal conditions.
By Boyle's Law pV = constant, halfing the volume would require doubling the pressure to maintain the constant. Hence, pressure doubles.
