Expert Answer
Properties of elements, on moving from left to right in a period, in the Modern Periodic Table:
(a) Variation in valency:
Valency of elements with respect to hydrogen increases arithmetically from 1 to 4 and back to 1.
(b) Atomic radius:
The atomic radius decreases on moving from left to right in a period.
(c) Metallic and Non-metallic Properties:
As the effective nuclear charge increases across the period, the tendency to lose the electrons will decrease.
So, the metallic character decreases across the period.
(d) Nature of oxides:
Oxides of elements in a period become progressively less basic and finally change to the acidic character.
