Chapter 8, Problem 8.1P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reaction to a claim that a new element discovered is between tin(Sn) and antimony(Sb) in the periodic table is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The periodic table is a tabular arrangement of the elements which are arranged according to their atomic number, electronic configurations and repeating chemical properties. It shows the periodic trends among the elements.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 8.1P

The claim is purely inappropriate so no new element can be added between tin(Sn) and antimony(Sb) in the periodic table.

Explanation of Solution

The periodic table is based on the atomic numbers of the elements. The atomic number of tin is 50 and that of antimony is 51 so both are arranged in a consecutive manner and there is no space left in between these two elements so a new element cannot be added in between tin(Sn) and antimony(Sb).

Conclusion

The new element cannot be added between tin and antimony in the periodic table.
