the properties of the elements are the periodic function of their atomic number
non-metallic elements are lesser in number than metallic elements
the first ionisation energies of elements along a period do not vary in a regular manner with increase in atomic number
for transition elements, the d-subshells are filled with electrons monotonically with increase in atomic numbers
