Periodic Law and Periodic Table

Chemistry ⇒ Atomic Structure and the Periodic Table

Periodic Law and Periodic Table starts at 8 and continues till grade 12. QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Periodic Law and Periodic Table. How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take. When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 12
Describe the difference between a period and a group in the periodic table.
Describe the trend in metallic character as you move down a group in the periodic table.
