Question

How do you appreciate the role of electronic configuration of the atoms of elements in periodic classification

Answer 1

SOLUTION

According to the modern periodic table, the Physical and chemical properties of the elements are periodic functions of their atomic numbers. It means when the elements are arranged in the order of their increasing atomic numbers or electronic configuration.

That means the element having same valance electronic configuration has similar properties and on going down the group electronic configuration is same. Therefore elements in a group possess similar properties. It is one of the ways of a comparative study of the elements.

Answer 2

The electronic configuration of the atoms helps to predict the physical and chemical properties of the elements. It gives the information about the reactivity, metallic nature and all physical and chemical properties of the element...
