Which chemical family is composed of elements that have full valence shells?

∙ 12y ago
Valence shells mean that the outermost orbits of electrons are full. Recall that from the inside out, the number of electrons for a shell to be full are: 2, 8, 8, 8, etc... So, Helium, He (2) has a filled shell. Neon (10) has a filled inner shell (2) and a filled outer shell (8): 2 + 8 = 10. Argon (18) has a filled inner shell (2), another filled shell (8), and a valent shell (8): 2 + 8 + 8 = 18. The family is composed of the non-reative Noble Gases.

Elements in the same family have similar what?
Elements in the same family-assuming family means classifications such as non-metals, metals-have similar properties.
Why do members of a family of elements behave the same in chemical reactions?
THis is because they have the same properties, therefore, they react the same way.
What does matter in science and matter in family matter?
science does matter in every individuals from birth to death but family matter is curtailed till you have affection and love with the family members.That's what i can serve this solution with you.Thanks for asking. By Aakash salvi from GOA
The elements in a family in the periodic table have similar?
Elements in families have similar propertieshahaha, i had the same worksheet too!how do u know which worksheet I'm doing?q: what is it called?A. ELEMENT EASIESB. ELEMENT QUESTIONSC. ELEMENTS HAVE THEIR WAYS...D. ELEMENTARY FACTStell me ur awnser. thx. =zoegurll
What family of the periodic table is most stable?
The Noble Gases are the most stable group of elements because since they have a full outer shell of valence electrons they cannot lost or gain electrons. Because of this the are inert, and cannot react with other elements in normal circumstances
What are elements with the same number if valence electrons and similar chemical properties?
those elements are in the same 'family' or 'group'
What chemical characteristics do elements In a family shares?
Elements in the same family, or group will contain the same number of valence electrons and have many similar characteristics.
What do the elements in the same in the same family have in common?
Valence shell configuration and physical and chemical properties.
Characteristics for uraniums family of elements?
Uranium is a member of the actinoids family. These chemical elements are:- they are considered frequently transition metals- they are radioactive elements- some are artificial elements- they have variable valence
What do the elements in oxygen family have in common?
All elements have same number of valence electrons (two) and hence they have similar reactivity and chemical properties.
What chemical family is composed of elements with filled valance shells?
The noble gasses. i ike men
Why do elements in the family have similar properties?
Because they have the same number of valence electrons, which are the primary determinants of chemical reactivity.
What do elements in the same group or family share?
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.
Why do the elements in the vertical columns all have the same chemical properties?
Group 1 have one valence electron. The elements in Group 2 have two. The elements in Group 17 have seven valence electrons, and Group 18 elements have eight. Because the valence electrons within a family are the same, the elements in that group have similar properties.
What do elements with in a family tend to share?
similar chemical properties and characteristics
What do elements in the family have in common?
Elements in the same family (or group) have the number of valence electrons in common. Ex: Family 16 - 6 valence electrons.properties
The Halogen family elements have how many valence electrons?
Halogen family members, or elements in group 17, have 7 valence electrons.
