Question

compare the elements of group 1 with elements of group 18 woth respect to 1) valency 2) conduction of electricity 3) oxidising/reducing agent 4) metallic/non-metallic character.​

Answer 1

Answer:

valency of group 1: 1

valency of group 18: 0

conduction of electricity G:1 conducts

group 18 : do not conduct

group1: reducing agent

group 18: no agent as it is neither a donor nor acceptor of electrons

G1: metallic

group 18: non metallic even though it has stable config.
