Question

Which of the following is NOT an appropriate reason for the need of classification of elements?

A.

To give the elements positions according to their colour.

B.

To understand the specific position of an element in the periodic table.

C.

To understand the periodicity in properties of elements.

D.

To correlate the properties of different elements.

Correct option is A

The correct answer is (A) To give the elements positions according to their colour.

Information Booster:

  • The classification of elements is done for scientific and logical reasons, such as:
  • Understanding the specific position of elements in the periodic table.
  • Identifying the periodicity in properties of elements, such as ionization energy, electronegativity, etc.
  • Establishing a correlation between the properties of different elements to predict behavior.
  • However, classifying elements based on their color is not scientifically relevant or meaningful. The color of elements is not a fundamental property used for classification in the periodic table.
