d and f BLOCK ELEMENTS Quiz

• First series have greater values
• Second and third series have greater values
• All series have equal values
• It varies randomly

• Weak interatomic forces
• Strong interatomic forces require more energy to overcome
• Low density
• High vapour pressure

• Atomic mass
• Number of valence electrons
• Nuclear charge alone
• Electronegativity

• High enthalpy of atomisation correlates with low boiling point
• High enthalpy of atomisation correlates with high boiling point
• There is no relationship
• It depends on the specific metal

• Decreasing nuclear charge
• Increasing nuclear charge with poor d electron shielding
• Adding electrons to the outermost shell
• Effective shielding by d electrons
