Investigative Study of Relationship of Chemical Characteristics of Group V Elements and Electron StructureBy Ukpaka Chukwuemeka Peter, Joy Chukwuemeka Peter Ukpaka, Victor Chukwuemeka Ukpaka, Abraham Peter Ukpaka
Abstract: Understanding the chemical properties of Group V elements through their electron configurations deepens our comprehension of periodic trends. Transitioning from nitrogen to bismuth, we observe a shift from non-metals to metalloids and then to metals, a change driven by the progression of electron shell and orbital filling. This insight is crucial for forecasting and elucidating the varied chemical behaviors and uses of Group V elements, thereby aiding developments in chemistry …

Overview of the Relationship of Chemical Behavior to Electron Structure of Group VII Elements in the Periodic TableBy Ukpaka Chukwuemeka Peter, Joy Chukwuemeka Peter Ukpaka, Victor Chukwuemeka Ukpaka, Abraham Peter Ukpaka
Abstract: This article examines the intriguing relationship between the chemical properties and electron configurations of Group VII elements, known as halogens: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), and astatine (At), which are located in the periodic table. These elements possess a common electron arrangement characterized by seven electrons in their outermost energy level. This shared arrangement is fundamental to their unique reactivity patterns. As one moves down the group, …
