Most rocks at the surface of the earth contain:
oxygen
silicon
(silicon dioxide is the major component of rocks and sand)
and in approximate order the next 6 are:
iron
aluminum
potassium
sodium
calcium
magnesium
These are all of the elements that comprise 1% or more of earth's crust.
The next two elements to complete the top 10 are titanium and hydrogen.
No. These elements were long known as the "noble gasses" and in fact it was long believed they could not form compounds. Only relatively recently was it discovered that these elements can form compounds with highly reactive elements such as Fluorine and Chlorine. But Ne2? Xe2? No way.
One of the elements that collectively form a system of numeration. It is also the number that follows 7.
They are elements of the infinite set of numbers of the form 120*k where k is an integer.
The properties were repeated after 8 elements.
Most of the elements in the top right of the period table (but not "group 8" - the furthest column to the right) will readily form anions (negatively charged ions) that can then form ionic bonds. Examples are O, N, P and S

8 sets of 6 elements would have 96 elements (8X6=96)
Group-14 elements share electrons. they form covalent bonds.
Until a recent time, it was considered that the noble gases (i.e. VIII A elements) does not form any compound as they themselves have already obtained a stable state with 8 electrons in the valence shell. In extreme conditions, these also form compounds such as XeF2.
