Question

Scientists Say: Periodic table | Science News for StudentsAtoms on which side of the Periodic Table will tend to GAIN electrons?

  1. Right
  2. Left
  3. Middle
  4. No atoms lose electrons

hintHint:

The right side has non metals.

The correct answer is: Right


    • In the periodic table there are 118 elements arranged in 18 groups and 7 periods.
    • Group 18 is the noble gas family has fulfilled valence shell.
    • The left side of the periodic table has metals, tend to lose electrons.
    • The right side of the periodic table has non metals, tend to gain electrons to attain noble gas configuration.
