the melting or boiling pt first increase for metals This is cuz the metallic bonding between the increasingly postive charged cation ie Na+1 Mg+2 Al+3 is stronger so more energy is needed to simultaneously break all the bonds

the melting temperature is highest for silicon as it exist as giant covalent structure -- You have to break a large amount of strong covalent bonds before it will melt or boil.

Phosphorus, sulphur, chlorine and argon are simple molecular substances with only van der Waals attractions between the molecules. Their melting or boiling points will be lower than those of the first four members of the period which have giant structures.

I'll just say mine was okay--made some silly errors but overall its was okay and easier than expected
