Why are the elemets in the periodic table listed in ceratin groups?
The vertical "groups" group elements by chemical properties the horizontal "periods" group elements by the number of energy levels
Why do elements in group 16 share similar properties?
All elements in group 16 share similar properties because their valence shells all contain the s2p4 electron configuration.
Are Physical properties within a period are more alike than physical properties within a group?
No, the physical properties within a group are more alike than those of a period. This is because all elements in a group share the number of valence electrons.
What is the periodic table of the elemets?
Atom number 20 is Calcium (period IV, group 2)
Elements that are in a vertical column in the periodic table that tend to share similar chemical properties and characteristics are called a?
The vertical elements are called groups. They have similar chemical properties.
Why do all elements in group 16 share property?
All elements in group 16 share similar properties because their valence shells all contain the s2p4 electron configuration.
What group contains the most elemets in the periodic table?
At Room Tempeture, Metals contain the most Elemants.
Why do all the element in group 16 share similar properties?
They all have the same number of valence electrons
Do elements of the same group or period have more similar characteristics?
Elements in the same group have similar characteristics because they have the same number of valence electrons, which determines their chemical properties. In contrast, elements in the same period have different characteristics because they have different numbers of energy levels and electron configurations.
Why do elements in the same family share similar bonding properties?
Because the members of a group have the same number of valence electrons.
Do elements in the same group share the same similar chemical properties?
Yes, they do (since they have the same number of valence electrons).
What are families in the periodic table that share similar properties?
Some share the same amount of valence electrons. Some could be classified in the same group such as metals, Nonmetal, Metalloids.
