what properties or characteristics affect how the periodic table is organised? explain how each item affects the arrangement.
Solution
Periodic table
The elements in the periodic table are arranged on the basis of increasing atomic number from left to right.
The elements with similar valence shell orbital are placed in same column. So p-orbital valence shell elements would be in one group, d-orbital valence shell elements in another group and so on.
The properties of these elements in a particular group are also similar.
