|
| 31. |
In what ways lithium shows similarities to magnesium in its chemical behaviour ? |
|
Answer» Solution : The similarity between lithium and magnesium is particularly striking and arises because of their similar sizes. Atomic radii : Li (152 pm) , Mg (160 pm) Ionic radii : `Li^(+)`(76 pm) , `Mg^(2+)` (72 pm) The main points of similarity are : (i) Both lithium and magnesium are harder and lighter than other elements in the RESPECTIVE groups. (ii) Lithium and magnesium react slowly with WATER. Their oxides and hydroxides are much less soluble and their hydroxides decompose on heating. Both form a nitride, `Li_(3)N` and `Mg_(3)N_(2)`, by direct combination with nitrogen. (iii) The oxides, `Li_(2)O and MgO` do not combine with excess oxygen to give any superoxide. (iv) The carbonates of lithium and magnesium decompose easily on heating to form the oxides and `CO_(2)`. Solid hydrogen carbonates are not FORMED by lithium and magnesium. (v) Both LiCl and `MgCl_(2)` are soluble in ethanol. (vi) Both LiCl and `MgCl_(2)` are DELIQUESCENT and crystallise from aqueous solution as hydrates, `LiCl* 2H_(2)O`and `MgCl_(2)*8H_(2)O`. |

In what manner is the long form of periodic table better than Mendeleef's periodic table ? Explain with examples. |
|
Answer» Solution :he LONG form of periodic table is much better than Mendeleev.s periodic table because it classifies the element on the basis of the configurations of electron of the atom. The characteristics of this table are (i) Table contains 9 vertical columns, which are called as groups and 7 horizontal rows, which are called the periods. (ii) The groups are marked 0 to VIII, out of which group I to VII are subdivided into subgroups A and B. (iii) Elements of group (IA) (Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs and Fr) are known as alkali metals and the group IIA elements are (Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba and Ra) are known as ALKALINE earth metals. Elements in group VIII A (E CI, Br, I and At) are called halogen FAMILY and elements in group VIII (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe and Rn) are called noble gases or RARE gases. (IV) Group VIII has same elements placed together in one placed. These are called as transition triads, e.g., Fe, Co and Ni, Ru, Rh and Pd, Os, Ir and Pt ctc. In the `6^(th) and 7^(th)` period, 14 elements are present called as lanthanides and actinides respectively. (vi) Elements are grouped on bases on their electronic configuration into s, p, d and f blocks. (vii) This is a gradual change in properties they are seen from one end to the other. |
