Group 1: alkali metals
Group 2: alkali earth metals
group one metal are also called alkali metals
It does have a name. Group 16 elements are called "chalcogens".
The group is usually just called "the nitrogen group" or group 15 or group 5A, but the old-fashioned name for that group are the pnictogens.
The group 2 elements are called Alkaline Earth metals. They are as follows:BerylliumMagnesiumCalciumStrontiumBariumRadiumhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkaline_earth_metal
It is alternatively called the Carbon family.
Group I of the periodic table is called the Alkali Metals group (Hydrogen-Lithium group)
The name of the group 7 elements that chlorine is included in, are called Halogens.
Group I elements are called alkali metals as they are generally basic in nature
Phosphorous is found in group 15 on the Periodic Table of the Elements. This is called the Nitrogen group.
The nonmetals in Group 7A are called halogens. They include elements such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine. Halogens are highly reactive elements that tend to form salts when they react with metals.
The name of the group 7 elements that chlorine is included in, are called Halogens.
Group 7 elements are also known as the halogens. These elements include fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine.
