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.

An element $X$ which is a yellow solid at room temperature shows catenation and allotropy. $X$ forms two oxides which are also formed during the thermal decomposition of ferrous sulphate crystals and are the major air pollutants.
$(a)$ Identify the element $X$
$(b)$ Write the electronic configuration of $X$
$(c)$ Write the balanced chemical equation for the thermal decomposition of ferrous sulphate crystals?

Which of the following statements is not correct regarding the trends observed when moving from left to right across the periods of the Periodic Table?

The following table shows elements represented by the letters $A, B, C, D, E, F, G$ and $H$.

Group	$1$	$2$	$13$	$14$	$15$	$16$	$17$	$18$
Element	$A$	$B$	$C$	$D$	$E$	$F$	$G$	$H$

$(i)$ Which of the elements has the atomic size:
$(a)$ biggest and $(b)$ smallest?
$(ii)$ Which element has valency:
$(a)$ $3$ and $(b)$ zero?

Describe the basic character of the oxides of third period elements across the period from left to right.

$(a)$ Electropositive nature of the element$(s)$ increases down the group and decreases across the period.
$(b)$ Electronegativity of the element decreases down the group and increases across the period.
$(c)$ Atomic size increases down the group and decreases across a period (left to right).
$(d)$ Metallic character increases down the group and decreases across a period.
On the basis of the above trends of the Periodic Table,answer the following about the elements with atomic numbers $3$ to $9$:
$(a)$ Name the most electropositive element among them.
$(b)$ Name the most electronegative element.
$(c)$ Name the element with the smallest atomic size.
$(d)$ Name the element which is a metalloid.
$(e)$ Name the element which shows maximum valency.
