उत्तर
In a period valence electrons increase from 1 to 7. But the shell remains the same. The element having valence electron 1, 2, 3 loose electrons, and are metals on the left. And elements having 5, 6, 7 valence electrons gain electrons and become non – metals are on the right of the periodic table.
Hence the transition from metallic to non-metallic character is seen from left to right a period.
