Question

Which of the following statements is not a correct statement about the trends when going from left to right across the periods of periodic Table.

Answer 1

(c) The atoms lose their valence electrons with difficulty and not easily. This is on account of the reason that
nuclear charge increases from left to the right since the atomic number of the elements gradually increases.
with the increase in nuclear charge, the force binding the electrons with the nucleus increases. Therefore, the atoms lose their valence electrons with difficulty.
