Are any of the elements in the same family also in the same period?

In the Periodic Table Of Elements, elements are not necessarily similar under the same period. But, they are similar under the same group. they only have one thing in particular they have the same amounts of shells for the atoms


Do elements have more similar properties when they are found in the same row or the same column?

Elements have more similar properties when they are found in the same column. Elements in the same column, also known as group or family, have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electrons. Elements in the same row, also known as period, have different properties because they have different electron configurations.

Are elements with similar chemical properties found in the same period or group on the periodic table of elements?

Elements with same properties are found in same group.They are also called families.


Which elements do you notice about the location of each element in each family?

In the periodic table, elements in the same family/group have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electrons, giving them similar reactivity. Elements in the same period/row have the same number of electron shells but different properties due to varying numbers of valence electrons. Transition metals are located in the d-block and have varying oxidation states and reactivity.


What is the similarity that the elements in the same period have?
