Write true or false for the statement: The term atomic size refers to the distance between the centre of the nucleus and the penultimate shell of an isolated atom.

$(i)$ State Modern Periodic Law.
$(ii)$ How many :
$(a)$ groups and
$(b)$ periods are present in the modern periodic table?
$(iii)$ State how the problem of placing:
$(a)$ hydrogen,
$(b)$ isotopes of an element has been solved in this periodic table.

Explain the basic character of oxides of elements down the group and across the period.

Three elements $X$,$Y$,and $Z$ having atomic numbers $11$,$7$,and $6$ respectively react with oxygen to form their oxides.
$(a)$ Arrange these oxides in increasing order of their basic nature.
$(b)$ Give reason for your answer.

Two elements $M$ and $N$ belong to group $I$ and $II$ respectively and are in the same period of the periodic table. How do the following properties of $M$ and $N$ vary:
$(a)$ sizes of their atoms?
$(b)$ their metallic characters?
$(c)$ their valencies in forming oxides?
$(d)$ formulae of their chlorides?

The following table shows elements represented by the letters $A, B, C, D, E, F, G$ and $H$.

Group	$1$	$2$	$13$	$14$	$15$	$16$	$17$	$18$
Element	$A$	$B$	$C$	$D$	$E$	$F$	$G$	$H$

$(i)$ Which of the elements has the atomic size:
$(a)$ biggest and $(b)$ smallest?
$(ii)$ Which element has valency:
$(a)$ $3$ and $(b)$ zero?
