Which of the following elements is known as bridge element?
Correct answer: A. Be
- A. Be
- B. K
- C. Cl
- D. P
Explanation
The correct answer is beryllium (Be) because it is considered a bridge element with properties that are intermediate between elements in different periods. The other options, potassium (K), chlorine (Cl), and phosphorus (P), do not exhibit the specific characteristics that define bridge elements in the periodic table.
