Chemistry Worksheets Class 11 on Chapter 11 The p-Block Elements with Answers - Set 2

The term “p-block elements” refers to substances in which the final electron reaches the p-subshell. There are three p-orbitals in total. With six being the maximum number of electrons that can fit in a set of p-orbitals, the p-block is made up of six groups. These elements’ general electrical configuration is ns2np1-6 (except for He).
