The answer you are probably looking for is the Periodic Table, which arranges the elements. The periodic table can help predict properties of an element based on the element's location. All the elements in a veritcle collum (also known as family or group) will have the same number of valence electrons and thus behave in a similar manner. Elements can also be compared to one another on the horizontal axis(the period). i.e. moving from left to right elements become less metalic and do not exibit metallic properties as stongly. General location on the table can tell you what type of element it is; metal, nonmetal, metalloid/semimetal. or the # of protons and electrons in the element, the Atomic Mass.

∙ 8y agoAn elements property can be best predicted from the group it is in the periodic table. Groups (the columns of the tables) of elements have similar properties due to their similar electron configuration of the valence shell.

∙ 10y agoLooking at the periodic table you can determine how many valence electrons an element has. The number of valence electrons determines many of the properties of elements.

Could a compound have the same properties as its component elements?
Compounds are made of bonding few elements. They could not have same properties as its component elements. They could have completely different properties.
Where are Elements with similar properties in the periodic table located?
Elements with similar physical and chemical properties are located in a group.
What shows and predicts every elements in the universe?
The periodic table of elements
What does the period number on a periodic table represent?
the Atomic number on Periodic Table is the identity of an element in the table , it gives the indications about Group, period and Block of elements it also predicts the chemical and physical properties of the element.
What does a period represent on the period table?
the Atomic number on Periodic Table is the identity of an element in the table , it gives the indications about Group, period and Block of elements it also predicts the chemical and physical properties of the element.
Are the properties of a compound the same of the properties of its elements?
the properties of a compound are not the same as the elements that form them.
Which elements have several properties?
All elements have several properties.
What does the atomic number represents on the periodic table?
the Atomic number on Periodic Table is the identity of an element in the table , it gives the indications about Group, period and Block of elements it also predicts the chemical and physical properties of the element.
What does the arrangement of the periodic table help table scientists see?
Patterns in the elements’ properties. -Apex
How does combining elements into compounds affect their properties?
The properties of the compound will differ from the properties of the elements of which it is made.
What elements have the same properties as xenon?
No two elements have the same properties.
When elements form bonds it changes their properties?
The properties of the elements are changed.
What does the statement the properties of salt are different from the properties of the elements that make them mean?
he properties of salts are different from the properties of elements that go into making them
