If they are placed in the same vertical column, which is called a group, it means that they have similar properties. For example, the first column (group) of the Periodic Table are the alkali metals. The second is alkali earth metals. Other groups include halogens, royal gases, etc.
The thing that is true about the elements in a given column in the periodic table is... Sex!
The elements in a vertical column (groups) have the same number of valence electrons and hence have similar properties.
The outer ring of their electron configuration has the same number of electrons in it
Elements in the same period of the periodic table have the same number of electron shells.
same charge
Elements in the same period of the periodic table have sequentially increasing numbers of protons.
No, on the periodic table of elements a family is a group of elements that are in the same row.Answered by Faustin Obedi
By number of elctrons,protons in them and their reaction rate
The elements of the periodic table are arranged in groups and periods. All of the elements in a period have the same number of atomic orbitals where as in a group all the elements have the same number of valence electrons.
Elements in the same grope share the same amount of energy shells, and valence electrons.
a family is a column of elements a period is a row of elements
Elements in the same period has same number of valence shells.There are 7 periods in Periodic Table.
Elements in the same period of the periodic table have sequentially increasing numbers of protons.
Period 4 and period 5 of the periodic table have the same number of elements. There are 18 elements in each period. While some elements in period 4 are calcium, iron, and zinc, elements in period 5 are tin, antimony, and iodine.
All elements in the same horizontal row of the Periodic Table are in the same period, there are 7 periods.
In the periodic table of the elements, a period is a horizontal row of the table. Elements in the same period have the same number of energy levels.
Yes, oxygen and fluorine are present in the same period on the periodic table.These elements are present in period-2.
The same number of shells
The rows in periodic table are known as periods. The arrangement is such that elements with similar properties fall in the same period.
Their valence electrons are in the same energy level.
No, hydrogen is in period one and lithium is in period two.
The number of shells define the period. The elements of the same group has same number of shells.
