Question

distinguish s- block elements and p- block elements of the periodic table.​

Answer 1

Answer:

s block elements p block elements

ii) They are soft metals. ii) Most of them are non-metals.

iii) The compounds of s-block elements are predominantly ionic except lithium and beryllium which forms covalent compounds. iii) They form ionic as well as covalent compounds.

Answer 2

S- block elements :-

• valence electrons of the s block elements are in the s orbital
• metals
• forms metallic and ionic bonds

P- block elements :-

• valence electrons of the p block elements are in the p orbital
• non metals/ metalloids
• forms covalent or ionic bonds
