Solution

According to Newland's Law of Octave, When we arrange elements with increasing atomic weight we get that every eighth element are similar.

It means if elements X and Y have similar properties then they have six(6) elements in between the two.

For ex, if Li is X and Na is Y with similar properties then arranging with Newlands law;

series 1. Li ,Be(1), B(2), C(3), N(4), O(5) ,F(6)

series 2 . Na . will be the arrangement
