Valence shell configuration and physical and chemical properties.
Elements in the same family (or group) have the number of valence electrons in common. Ex: Family 16 - 6 valence electrons.properties
Elements in the same family have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of outer electrons, which determines their reactivity. This similarity is due to the elements in a family occupying the same column on the periodic table, which means they share the same number of valence electrons.
No, elements in the same column are in the same family.
Elements in the same family-assuming family means classifications such as non-metals, metals-have similar properties.
Family of elements share similar chemical properties due to having the same number of valence electrons. This results in comparable reactivity and bonding patterns within a group of elements. Additionally, they often exhibit a trend in physical properties such as atomic size and electronegativity.
All elements have same number of valence electrons (two) and hence they have similar reactivity and chemical properties.
Elements in the same family (group) on the periodic table have the same number of valence electrons and hence they have similar properties and reactivities.
Yes, elements within the same family have similar chemical properties due to their shared number of valence electrons. This results in similar reactivity and chemical behavior among elements in the same family.
Such atoms belong to a group in the periodic table of elements.
a family is a column of elements a period is a row of elements
elements in the same column are in the same group or family. the rows in the Periodic Table are called periods
Elements in the same family are related because of shared properties. For example, all the elements in the noble gas family do not react to anything and are colorless, nonflammable, odorless, and tasteless under normal circumstances.
