NON metals and METALLOIDS exist only in the ... block of periodic tableP
NON metallic oxides are ...( acidic/basic)acidic
metal oxides are ...basic
FIRST MEMBER of P-BLOCK DIFFERS from rest of the heavier elements starting from 3rd period in ( 2 ways)1) SIZE 2) (applies only to p block elements) ABSENCE OF EFFECT OF D ORBITALS IN THE VALENCE SHELL OF THEIR ELEMENTS and their effects in heavier elements
Maximum valency of p block elments OF SECOND PERIODFOUR
ELEMENTS OF 3RD PERIOD P BLOCK CAN EXTEND THEIR VALENCY CUSTHEY HAVE VACANT D ORBITAL PRESENT
FIRS T MEMBER OF A GROUP DIFFESR FROM THS HEAVIER ELEMENTS IN ITS ABILITY TOFORM p-pi - p-pi bonds to itself and to second row elements
P pi- Ppi bonding isnt strong for thr heavier elements of p block but their pi bonds involve D orbitals, as D orbitals are higher in energy than P orbitals, theycontribute less to the overall stability than P-pi - P - pi BONDING of the second row elements
the ... NUMBER maybe ... in species of higher mass than the first element of the same oxidation stateCOORDINATION, higher

WHY boron forms covalent bonds not ionicDUE TO SMALL SIZE OF BORON, THE SUM OF ITS THREE ENTHALPIES OF IONIZATION IS VERY HIGH, WHICH PREVENTS IT FROM MAKING B+3 ION AND HENCE, IT CAN FORM BONDS ONLY THROUGH SHARING

WHY WHITE fumes appear around the bottle of ANHYDROUS Aluminium chloride?Anhydrous aluminium chloride is partially hydrolysed with atmospheric moisture to liberate HCl gas,. Moist HCl is WHITE in color
HYDRATIONits defined as ELECTROPHILIC ADDITION REACTION, and there is NO CLEAVAGE OF THE ORIGINAL MOLECULE. in this kind of reaction, water reacts with an unsaturated compund, for eg, to form an ALCHOHOL ~from hydration of ethylene to form ethanol. here, hydroxyl group (-OH) adds to one of the bonds and proton adds to another.
HYDROLYSISits a reaction in which chemical bonds are broken by the addition. EG: if we add, water to concentrated sulphuric acid, H2SO4, it dissociates into H3O+ and (HSO4)-
