What is the significanse of the vertical columns of the periodic table?
The elements in the same vertical columns, also called groups or families, all share common traits with each other (for example, all of the alkali metals react violently when placed in water.) This is because all of the elements in one group contain the same number of valence electrons.
What do family of elements have in common?
What they have in common is that the ones of the same family is that they all have a close amount of protons.
What does vertical or opposite angle mean?
Vertically opposite angles are the angles that are opposite each other when two lines cross. Vertical means they share the same vertex.
Is zinc oxide covalent or ionic?
Zinc Oxide is ionic. Covalency arises between elements close to each other in their vertical groups in the Periodic Table.
What measures the amount of corporate profit assigned to each share of common stock?
EPS represents the portion of a company's profit allocated to each outstanding share of common stock
How are the elements organized?
The elements are organized by two types of features. These two features are known as: 1) periods (horizontal rows): each new row has a new outer shell to be filled with electrons; and 2) groups (vertical columns): each column across a row adds an extra electron to the other shell, and each group of elements share similar properties.
What do you by the family of an element?
On the periodic table, the elements fall into groups (the vertical columns) which are often called families. The reason is that elements in a group are chemically similar to each other.
Why are angles opposite each other when two lines cross called vertical angles?
"Vertical" in this case means they share the same Vertex (corner point), not the usual meaning of up-down.
What do elements in each period have in common?
they have the same energy levels
What are the different groups in he periodic table of elements?
That is a silly answer, not meant to be helpful; meant to be annoying and show ignorance. Elements are "grouped" in 18 (vertical) columns or "families". Without getting too complicated, the "grouping" indicates that all elements in that same group or family share similar chemical or physical characteristics - just as members of the same "human family" do . . . . resemble each other.
Which are verticals angles?
Generally vertical angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines cross. "Vertical" in this case means they share the same Vertex (corner point), not the usual meaning of up-down.
How far is nebraska to Colorado?
