Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:Name,atomic symbol and group number of element with
Concept introductionStaircase pattern line is seen in group 13 to 17 of representative elements on the periodic table. It is a hypothetical line that separates the metal and non-metal elements and the elements that touch the staircase type line are generally considered as metalloids.
Elements that are metallic in nature, occupy large lower-left portion of table. Non-metals occupy small upper-right portion of table. Metalloids like along staircase line. Elements that appear in same group have similar behaviour.
