answered-by-expert Expert Answer
  • The p-block elements have relatively little in common except that their outer elections are in p orbitals.
  • This contrasts with the considerable similarities in properties of the elements of the s-block and also between those of the d-block.
  • The p-block is more notable for trends.
  • The general electronic configuration of these elements is ns2 np1-6.
  • Depending upon the number of valence electrons, the elements of the p-block exhibit variable oxidation states.
