Question

Chemical Properties depends on
a) Valence shell electronic configuration
b) Electronic configuration
c) Atomic mass
d) None

Answer 1

Answer:

a. Valence Shell Electronic configuration

Explanation:

Answer 2

Chemical properties depends on valence shell electronic configuration. (Option A)

• The chemical properties of an element is highly dependent on the characteristics of the chemical bonding, formed by that element.

• Now,we know that the characteristics of the chemical bonding are dependent on the electronic configuration of the valence shell because the electrons present in the valence shell take part in the chemical reactions.

• That's why the chemical properties are also dependent on the electronic configuration of the valence shell.
