A group of 17 elements is called a period in the periodic table. This period corresponds to the number of electron shells in an atom within that group. Elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells.
Each (horizontal) row is called a '''period''', whereas each (vertical) column is called a group.
Down a column is a GROUP Along a line is a PERIOD .
Nitrogen can be found in the 1st period of group 15 elements in the periodic table.
Group 4 elements on the periodic table contain no period 2 elements whatsoever.
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.
periodsThere are seven periods, or rows, on the periodic table.
The rows going across the periodic table are called periods. As you go across a row, each element increases in number of protons and electrons, which distinguishes it from other elements in the table.
