The properties of sodium are a result of its configuration of valence shell electrons, so for similar properties, you would look for elements with a similar configuration.
Since sodium has one electron in its valence shell (which is one more electron than the previous noble gas, neon), you would look for other elements that also have one more electron than the previous noble gas. The elements in the far left column of the Periodic Table fit this description. This column includes the elements potassium and lithium.

What 3 elements from the periodic table have the same properties as sodium?
No other element has the exact same properties as sodium, but the three with the most similar properties would most likely be lithium, potassium, and rubidium.
Why do elements potassium and sodium have similar chemical properties?
Because they're have the same Alkali Metals, and next to each other on the Periodic Table.
Which elements have the same properties of sodium?
The are the other alkali metals: lithium, potassium, rubidium, caesium.
What do you know about the elements that are in the same vertical column?
They are called groups and have similar properties with the other elements in that group.
Are the chemical properties of elements of chlorine and sulfur similar?
Not particularly. They're both nonmetals, but beyond that they don't have a whole lot in common. They're more similar to each other than either is to sodium, but that's not saying much.

Why do the elements belong in their groups?
because they have similar properties to the other elements in their groups
Elements in a have similar chemical properties?
a group of elements that have similar properties are arranged one on top of the other on the periodic table. These groups are also called families
Which element has the same properties as cesium?
Only caesium has the same properties as caesium. There are other elements which have some similar properties.
Which elements is most likely to have similar properties to those of sodium?
Each element has similar properties to the other elements in its group on the periodic table. Sodium is an alkali metal, and those are the elements in Group 1 of the periodic table of elements. We know that lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium and francium all have similar chemical properties.
Which elements have the same properties of sodium?
The are the other alkali metals: lithium, potassium, rubidium, caesium.
What do you know about the elements that are in the same vertical column?
They are called groups and have similar properties with the other elements in that group.
What similar properties does gold have with certain other elements?
Conducting heat and electricity.
Do calcium and magnesium have similar properties?
Since they are in the same group (2A), yes they have similar properties, more than those of elements in other groups.
Are the chemical properties of elements of chlorine and sulfur similar?
Not particularly. They're both nonmetals, but beyond that they don't have a whole lot in common. They're more similar to each other than either is to sodium, but that's not saying much.
What are three elements that have similar chemical properties to oxgen?
Three elements that have similar chemical properties to oxygen are sulfur, selenium, and tellurium. These elements belong to the same group as oxygen in the periodic table and have similar electron configurations, which influence their reactivity and chemical behavior. Additionally, they can form similar types of chemical bonds with other elements.
