NEET Chemistry Periodic Table MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about the periodic table is correct?
Metals are usually located on the left side of the periodic table and are good conductors of heat.
Non-metals are primarily found in the middle of the periodic table and typically exhibit high electrical conductivity.
The noble gases have partially filled orbitals, making them highly reactive.
Metalloids have properties that are strictly metallic or non-metallic, but not both.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the NCERT context, metals are found on the left side of the periodic table and are characterized by good conductivity of heat and electricity. Non-metals are not primarily in the middle, and noble gases have filled orbitals leading to low reactivity.
