Every element on the Periodic Table has an OXIDATION NUMBER of zero, including Lithium.
Positive oxidation numbers are most common with the metals - groups 1 to 13. However there are many well known compounds where non-metals have positive oxidation numbers- for example NaClO4 where Cl has an oxidation number of +7
Modern periodic table has 7 periods and 18 groups.
There are 18 groups and 7 periods in the modern periodic table.
Columns in the periodic table are called "groups" and there are 18 groups in the periodic table.
The vertical columns of the periodic table are called groups. The horizontal rows of the periodic table are called periods. The number of electron shells an atom has corresponds to the number period of the periodic table it is located in. The oxidation number or number of valence electrons an atom is depicted by the group it is in. For example: Calcium (Ca) has an oxidation number of +2 and has 2 valence electrons( outermost electrons) which means it belongs to group 2 of the periodic table called the "alkali earth metals".

The periodic table of Mendeleev has 18 groups.
The group number tells you the number of valence electrons in the outer shell. This is important because it is the valence electrons that participate in bonding, and thus in determining the properties of the element.
groups are the vertical columns on the periodic table
-1.
In English please ?I
Elements are arranged on the Periodic Table in the order of the atomic number, in groups and periods.
groups on the periodic table are the vertical coumns that go up and down. A period on the periodic table are the rows that go horizontal or across.
the vertical columns in the periodic table are known as groups.
The vertical columns are called groups in a periodic table.
