I know the smell is strong, but I love that smell, I guess I got used to it growing up, as we had cabbage quite often, and I love fried cabbage too. I'll be having Corn beef and Cabbage on St. Paddy's Day, can't hardly wait-umm! Windy Â· 7 years ago.
The elements in groups 1 and 2 and helium in group 18 of the periodic table are known as s-block elements. Apart from hydrogen and helium all the elements of s-block are metals.
The s-sub-shell in the valence shell is represented as the ns sub-shell. However, palladium (Pd) is an exception with no electron in the s-sub shell. In the periodic table, the transition metals are present in ten groups (3 to 12). Group-2 belongs to the s-block with an ns2 configuration.
