Electropositive character of an element is its ability to lose electrons and form positive ions. Now, as on moving from left to right in a period of periodic table, the nuclear charge increases due to the gradual increase in number of protons, so the valence electrons are pulled more strongly by the nucleus. Thus, it becomes more and more difficult for the atoms to lose electrons causing a decrease in the electropositive character of elements on moving from left to right in a periodic table.
Group 18th elements are named as noble gases as they are very stable due to having the maximum number of valence electrons their outermost shell can hold , hence they rarely react with other elements .
Group 1 elements – Alkali metals
Group 2 elements – Alkaline earth metals
Group 17 elements – Halogens

? The phrase learning disability covers some range of conditions that affects a person’s ability to learn new information.
? Children suffering from Learning disabilities exhibit exceptionally inferior qualities and capacities in terms of learning and understanding in comparison to the normal children of their grade or class. Such individuals experience extreme difficulty in the performance of specific mental skills, such as reading or arithmetic. Which is inconsistent with the person’s overall intelligence, sometimes linked to perceptual or memory problems.
? Causes of learning disability
Physiological factors
Environmental factors

? Dysgraphia is a neurological disorder of written expression that impairs writing ability and fine motor skills. It is a learning disability that affects children and adults, and interferes with practically all aspects of the writing process.
? Dyslexia is the disorder that involves difficulty in reading due to problems identifying speech sounds and decoding.
? Dysnomia is a learning disability in children, that is difficulty in recalling words, names, numbers, etc
