Quiz on Periodic Table for Chemistry Students

Symmetrical arrangement of all the chemical elements which are known yet, is termed as periodic table. There are so many varieties of periodic table based on their development and invention of elements but the most accepted one is modern periodic table. And in this periodic table columns and rows are distributed  based on the atomic number of an element. Apart from this their chemical and physical properties are periodic functions of their atomic number.

Below is the quiz on periodic table and its behaviour. So let’s start and test our knowledge!!!

Summary

From the above quiz on periodic table, we have learned so many things like development of different periodic table. Some of the commonly developed periodic tables are Lavoisier classification ( based on metal and non-metals), Dobereiner triad rule ( based on three elements showing similar properties), Newland octet rule ( based on increasing atomic mass of elements ), Lother Meyer’s curve ( based on atomic weight and atomic volume of different elements ), Mendeleefs periodic table ( based on different physical and chemical properties of elements ) and Modern periodic table ( based on atomic number ). Apart from development, we also discussed questions on both physical and chemical properties of different elements. It includes ionisation energy, ionic radii, covalent radii, electron gain enthalpy, hydration energy, boiling point, freezing point, etc.  

Most acceptable periodic table is modern periodic table. It was discovered by Moseley as he did an experiment in which he bombarded high speed electrons on a different metal surface and obtained x-rays. In modern periodic tables, there are seven rows called periods and the columns are called groups. And these columns and rows are distributed based on the atomic number of an element. Apart from this their chemical and physical properties are periodic functions of their atomic number.
