Characteristics of p-block elements

General characteristics of p-block elements:

1. The common electronic configuration of p-block elements is ns2 np1-6.

2. These elements comprise metals and non-metals with some semi metals (i.e., Metalloids)

3. Most of them made covalent compounds.

4. These elements hold relatively high ionisation energy and the value tends to rise along the period however reduce down the group.

5. Most of the elements show negative (apart from some metals) and also positive oxidation states (apart from Fluorine).

6. One of the well-known characteristic of p-block elements is to illustrate inert pair effect that is, the tendency of being less accessibility for ns electron in bonding. The inert pair effect rises down the group with the raise in atomic number.

Properties of P Block Elements:

The p-block is one among the two blocks in the periodic table to include non-metals (although the s-block only has one non-metal hydrogen). It has some of the highly varied properties of any area in the periodic table. The metals in P-block of the periodic table are, usually, softer and have lesser melting points than transition metals. The p-block is only part of the periodic table that includes metalloids. Generally the farther one moves to the right and the farther one goes upside in p-block, the less metallic character elements get; the metalloids makes a diagonal line from the upper left to the lower right of the p-block.
