What are the characteristics of group 4 in the periodic table?

Answer 1

Group 4 (previously called IVA) elements all have two valence electrons, and have high boiling points. A possible exception is rutherfordium, the chemistry of which is not well-known due to its instability.

Answer 2

The group 4 elements are titanium, zirconium, hafnium, and rutherfordium.

First off, all Group 4 elements have 4 valence electrons. These valence electrons are in a d2s2 configuration.

Second, the three naturally occurring elements have very similar atom sizes.

Third, the three naturally occurring elements have very similar ionization potentials.

All naturally occurring Group 4 elements are quite reactive metals. They are typically found as metal oxides. They are also resistant to heat and wear. Zirconium and hafnium have such similar properties that their separation was the last to be achieved, and hafnium was the second last of the stable elements to be prepared in a pure form and characterized.

Answer 3

The group 4 contain: titanium, zirconium, hafnium, rutherfordium.

Answer 4

The Group 4 elements consist of :

Titanium (Ti)

Zirconium (Zi)

Hafnium (Hf)

Rutherfordium (Rf)

Answer 5

group four in the periodic table is a carbon group

Answer 6

Group IVA is known as the carbon family
