In the periodic table each period begins with a metal, which is a) Most electronegative b) Most electropositive b) Less electropositive d) Less electronegative Q#2 Amswer the following short questions

The oxidation state vary in a period but almost constant in a group? Ionic character of Halides decrease from left to the right in a period? Why Pbcl2is ionic and pbCl4 is covalent in nature? Why hydration energy increase doen the group? Why the size of Na+ is less than Na? What are the improvement made in medelevees periodic table? Why diamond is non-condutor and graphite is good conductor? Why oxidation state of noble gases is zero?

Justify the position of hydrogen on various group of periodic table?
