    What is the purpose of the periodic table?

    It organizes elements for easier identification and understanding.

    How do rows differ from columns in the periodic table?

    Rows indicate energy levels, while columns show similar properties.

    What defines metals in the periodic table?

    They are shiny, good conductors, malleable, and ductile.

    What characterizes nonmetals?

    They are brittle and poor conductors of electricity.

    What are metalloids?

    Elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals.

    How did Mendeleev's arrangement of elements differ from Dobereiner's?

    Mendeleev organized elements by groups with similar properties, while Dobereiner grouped them in threes by weight.

    What is ionization energy?

    The energy required to remove an electron from an atom.

    How does atomic radius affect reactivity?

    Larger atomic radius generally leads to lower ionization energy and higher reactivity.

    What is effective nuclear charge?

    The net positive charge experienced by an electron in a multi-electron atom.

    What trend is observed in electron configurations across a period?

    Electrons fill the outermost energy levels, affecting chemical properties.
