Chemistry Question on Classification of elements & periodicity in properties
Which of the following is not a periodic property for the elements?
A
Electronegativity
B
Atomic size
C
Occurrence in nature
D
Ionization energy
Answer
Occurrence in nature
Explanation
Solution
Occurrence in nature is not a periodic property for the elements. Electronegativity, electron affinity, atomic size, metallic character, redox potential and ionisation enthalpy are periodic properties for the elements.
