Moving from left to right in a period, the ionization enthalpy increases with atomic number. There is a relationship between the electron configurations of elements and their chemical and physical properties.

* Information Valid for Most Abundant Isotope Only.Like other groups, the members of this family show patterns in electron configuration, especially in the outermost shells, resulting in trends in chemical behavior. It consists of iron (Fe), ruthenium (Ru), osmium (Os) and hassium (Hs).5.3 Group 2 I II III IV Li Be B C Period 2 Na Mg Al Si Period 3 Increasing electronegativity Increasing electronegativity The untypically large electronegativities of Period 2 elements (caused by their small size) mean that they are in some. 5.3 & 5.4 Group 2 What is the outcome from syllabus? 5. Which of the following is the outermost shell for elements of period 2? (a) K shell (b) L shell (c) M shell (d) N shell An element which is an essential constituent of all organic compounds belongs to (a) group 1 (b) group 14 (c)group 15 (d)group 16 10. 2,8 in the Modern Periodic Table? (a) Group 8 (b) Group 2 (c) Group 18 (d) Group 10 9.
