प्रश्न
where should hydrogen be placed in the modern periodic table? Give reason for your answer.
उत्तर
Generally, hydrogen is treated as a special element and placed alone at the head of the periodic table. The position of hydrogen in the periodic table is unclear because it resembles both the alkali metals and halogens in some of its properties. However, it is placed in the first group, above all the alkali metals in the modern periodic table because its electronic configuration is similar to that of alkali metals. But due to the small size of hydrogen, it exhibits properties different from that of the alkali metals.
