Ideal for CBSE and other board students, this resource will simplify your study experience.
What is the basic theme of organisation in the periodic table?
Before 18th century, only a few elements are known and it was quite east to study their chemical and physical properties. But with the passage of time, more and more elements were discovered and it was not possible to study and remember each of them individually. Because many of them have different properties. So, there arise the need of developing a table or chart in which all the elements can be classified according to similar properties ,so that there is less confusion and true information can be generated about the different elements present in periodic table.
The first (ΔiH1) and the second (ΔiH) ionization enthalpies (in kJ mol–1) and the (ΔegH) electron gain enthalpy (in kJ mol–1) of a few elements are given below:
| Elements | ΔiH1 | ΔiH | ΔegH |
| I | 520 | 7300 | -60 |
| II | 419 | 3051 | -48 |
| III | 1681 | 3374 | -328 |
| IV | 1008 | 1846 | -295 |
| V | 2372 | 5251 | +48 |
| VI | 738 | 1451 | -40 |
Which of the above elements is likely to be :
(a) the least reactive element.
(b) the most reactive metal.
(c) the most reactive non-metal.
(d) the least reactive non-metal.
(e) the metal which can form a stable binary halide of the formula MX2, (X=halogen).
(f) the metal which can form a predominantly stable covalent halide of the formula MX (X=halogen)?
