Elements in the same family (or group) have the same amount of electrons in their outer shell. For Example, all elements in Group 1 have 1 electron in their outer shells.
These metals are called alkaline earth metals.
Every chemical compound is unique and different from the ELEMENTS it contains
The family/group where they belong.
If a material contains three elements joined in a fixed proportion, then it is a compound. It can only be separated by a chemical reaction.
False

These metals are called alkaline earth metals.
The halogens family contain: F and Cl (gases), Br (liquid), I and At (solids).

Family 18
Elements from a family have similar chemical properties.
Both elements, sodium (Na) and potassium (K) lie in the Group 1 column of the Periodic Table , which contains the members of the Alkali Metals family. Members within a family, or column, of elements tend to have similar chemical properties.
A chemical formula shows what elements a compound contains, and the ratio of the atoms or ions of the elements in the compound.
Chemical formula for this compound is CuO. It contains the elements Copper and Oxygen. It is a red colored compound.
Group (or family) 18, also known as the noble gases, are elements that are completely stable and rarely react with other elements.
The family/group where they belong.
