Atomic radii of the elements of the second period are given below :

Period $II$ elements	$B$	$Be$	$O$	$N$	$Li$	$C$
Atomic radius $(pm)$	$88$	$111$	$66$	$74$	$152$	$77$

$(i)$ Arrange them in decreasing order of their atomic radii.
$(ii)$ Are the elements now arranged in the pattern of a period in the Periodic Table?
$(iii)$ Which elements have the largest and the smallest atoms?
$(iv)$ How does the atomic radius change as you go from left to right in a period?

The atomic radii of the elements of the second period are given below:

Second period elements	$B$	$Be$	$O$	$N$	$Li$	$F$	$C$
Atomic Radii $(pm)$	$88$	$111$	$66$	$74$	$152$	$64$	$77$

$(i)$ Arrange these elements in decreasing order of their atomic radii.
$(ii)$ Are the elements now arranged in the pattern of a period in the periodic table?
$(iii)$ Name the element which has the $(a)$ smallest and $(b)$ largest atomic number.
$(iv)$ From the above data, infer how the atomic size or atomic radius of the elements changes as we move from left to right in a period.
$(v)$ Name one metal, one non-metal, and a metalloid out of these elements.
$(vi)$ Why does atomic radius decrease as we move from left to right in a period?

In Mendeleev's Periodic Table,gaps were left for elements to be discovered later. Which of the following elements found a place in the periodic table later?

Properties of the elements are given below. Where would you locate the following elements in the periodic table?
$(a)$ An element which is an inert gas with atomic number $2$.
$(b)$ An element whose thin oxide layer is used to make other elements corrosion resistant by the process of 'anodising'.

Mention any two trends exhibited by elements when we go from left to right across the period of the periodic table.

Write true or false for the statement: In Mendeleev's periodic table,elements were arranged in the order of their increasing atomic masses and it was also observed that there occurs a periodic recurrence of elements with similar physical and chemical properties.
