Newlands law of octaves was rejected mainly because of which of this:
A. Elements were arranged in increasing order of atomic mass.
B. The cycle of repetition shown by elements is similar to octave in music.
C. it could not hold good for elements heaver than calcium
D. Many radioactive elements have not been discovered then.
the correct answer is C, Newland's Law of Octaves was rejected mainly
because it could not hold good for elements heavier than calcium. The
relationship between the octaves started to break down since it was
unable to accommodate newly discovered elements.
