Detailed Solution

The law of octaves states that every eighth element has similar properties when the elements are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic masses.
Newland’s law of octaves held true only for elements up to calcium. Elements with greater atomic masses could not be accommodated into octaves.


Hence, Newland’s law of octaves is applicable only up to calcium.
