The Periodic Law
Parker POINTS
Repetition in chemical and physical properties of the elements is a fundamental pattern in nature / The pattern is periodicity and forms the basis of the periodic law / The properties of the elements recur periodically when the elements are arranged in increasing order by their atomic numbers

The Neutron
Parker POINTS
A beam of high penetrating power is produced by bombarding beryllium with alpha particles / The beam’s particles have the same mass as protons and are not affected by electric or magnetic fields / Called Neutrons because they have no charge, and are neutral / They are inside and play an important role in maintaining the nucleus.
