why do the two elements silver and iron have different properties?

Sagot :

Silver and iron have different properties since they are placed in different positions in a periodic table.

Iron:

  • It is known to exist in four distinct crystalline forms.
  • Iron rusts in damp air, but not in dry air.
  • It dissolves readily in dilute acids.
  • Iron is the 26th element on the periodic table. It is located in period 4 and group 8.

Silver:
