limitation of newland's law octaves?

Answer 1

Limitations of Newland's law of Octaves

Newland's law of Octaves was applicable only Upto calcium.

Newland's law of Octaves worked well only with lighter elements.

To match with the properties,Newland arranged two elements in the same slot.For example, cobalt and nickel are kept in same slots.

Elements of similar properties are kept far away from each other.For example,Iron is kept far from Cobalt and Nickel Which resembles same properties.

Elements of different properties are kept in the same column.

Answer 2

Hey there !!

▶ Newlands' law of Octaves :-

→ Newland found that every eighth element had properties similar to that of the first. He compared these to the octaves found in music. Therefore, he called it is the ‘ Law of Octaves’. It is known as ‘ Newlands'law of octaves ’ .

$\bf \underline{ \implies Limitations \: of \: Newlands' \: law \: of \: Octaves .}$

​

→ Law of Octaves only applicable upto calcium and after calcium every 8th did not possess properties similar to that of the first.

→ At the time of Newlands' only 56 elements were existed in nature and Newlands'assume that no more elements will be discovered the future.

→ But, later on , several new elements were discovered, whose properties did not fit into the law of octaves.

→ One important demerit of Newlands' law that he adjusted two elements in the same slot such as Cobalt and nickel [ Co and Ni ] .

→ With the discovery of noble gases the law of octaves become irrelevant.

→ Newlands'law of Octaves worked well with lighter elements only.

✔✔ Hence, it is solved ✅✅.
