Studied by 0 peopleWhat are the 4 blocks of the Periodic Table?
The s, p, d and f blocks
How to determine which block and element falls under?
The location of their outermost electron in
___(s, p, d, f) subshell
How many valence electrons do Metals have?
3 or less
How many valence electrons do Non-Metals have?
4 or more
What are the conditions for a d-block element?
Must have atleast 1 d-electron, and 1 s-electron
But no f or p electrons in the outershell
What are the conditions for an element to be considered a f-block element?
Must have at least 1 f-electron, and at least 1-s electron but no p or d electrons in the outermost shells
What is periodicity?
Periodicity in elemental properties refers to the repeating patterns observed among elements when they are organized based on increasing atomic number on the periodic table.
