How do you locate a period and a group on the periodic table of elements?

To find the period of an element on the Periodic Table, you look at the end of the row and see what number is there. For example, if your were trying to find the period of Oxygen, you would look all the way to the right or left side of the table and see what number there is, and you would find that oxygen is in period 2.

∙ 13y agoIn the periodic table a group is a vertical colomn (numbered: 1 to 18) and a period is a horizontal row (there are 7 periods: I to VII, with 2, 8, 8, 18, 18, 32, (max)32 elements respectively in each)

What is group 18 on the periodic table?
In Periodic table , Group 18 corresponds to Nobel gas group. They are six elements in this group. Helium , Neon , Argon , Krypton , Xenon , Radon constitute these group. They are chemically inert elements and having stable configuration.
How are the trends in the periodic table helpful in identifying an element?
The periodic trends that arise from the arrangement of the periodic table provide chemists with an invaluable tool to quickly predict an element's properties. These trends exist because of the similar atomic structure of the elements within their respective group families or period and the periodic nature of the elements.
Which column of elements in the periodic table have similar but not identical properties?
The "vertical" column of the periodic table is called the "group" (from group I, with Hydrogen at the top, then Lithium, Sodium, Potasium, Rubidium, Cesium and Francium at the bottom of that group; To group VIII with Helium at the top, working down to ununoctium at the bottom). The horizontal column is called a "period". e.g, period 1, has the element Hydrogen to Helium from left to right of the periodic table, Whereas period 7, has the elements Francium, Radium, Actinium, Rutherfordium, dubnium, Seaborgium, Bohrium, Hassium, Meitnerium, Darmstadtium, Roentgenium, Ununbium, Ununtrium, Ununquadium, Ununpentium, Ununhexium, Ununseptium and Ununoctium, from left to right of the periodic table!
What element is in group 4 and period 2 on the periodic table?
Group 4 elements on the periodic table contain no period 2 elements whatsoever.
What is the difference3 between a family of elements and elements in the same period?
a family is a column of elements a period is a row of elements

Is Butane in group 2 of the Periodic Table?
The periodic table lists the elements and not compounds. Butane, C4H10, is an organic molecule / compound and hence is not present on the periodic table. The elements that make up butane (carbon and hydrogen) are present on the periodic table. Carbon: group 14, period 2 Hydrogen: group 1, period 1 Besides, group 2 elements are alkaline earth metals.
Where in the periodic table is nitrogen found?
Nitrogen can be found in the 1st period of group 15 elements in the periodic table.
What group of elements in the periodic table is made up of elements that are gases at room temperature?
The elements in column 18 of a wide form periodic table or Column VIII of a narrow form periodic table, commonly called the noble gases. Also, both elements in the first period, the elements in groups 15, 16, and 17 of the second period, and the element in group 17 of the third period.
What is the difference between a period and a group on page 126-127 in the Nelson Science Textbook of Grade 9 for Ontario?
The difference between a period and a group is that:A periodic is a horizontal row of elements in the periodic table, which simply means the column of the periodic table.A group is a vertical row of elements in the periodic table, which simply means the row of the periodic table.
