For example the column 17 - halogens.
Look what column it is in within the Periodic Table. The first column has 1 valance electron. The second column has 2 valence electrons. The entire section of shorter columns (all metals) also have two valence electrons. The tall column after that (with Boron ) has three valence electrons. The tall column after that (with carbon) has four valence electrons. This pattern continues until you reach the final column, the noble gasses (eg. Neon, argon, xenon); these all have 8 valence electrons.
They have the same number of valence electrons (electrons in their outermost shell). They do not have the same number of shells however.
they represent elements. the elements in a given column (or group) have the same number of valence electrons and hence similar properties.
No. It is not the same. the number of valence electrons are same for the elements in the same column (group).
Hafnium may be found in column 4 of a wide form periodic table. This indicates that it has four valence electrons.
When moving down a column in the periodic table, except for the first period of column 18, the number of valence electrons remains unchanged.
3: For periodic columns 1 through 3, the number of valence electrons is the same as the number of the periodic column.
Elements with the same number of valence electrons are in the same group (or vertical column).
Because they have the same number of valence electrons.
Yes, it is correct.
valence electrons
Elements in a given column have the same number of valence electrons and hence the similar properties.
Every atom in Column 2 of a wide form periodic table has two valence electrons.
For main group elements the column number is a concrete indication of then number of valence electrons (and therefore oxidation number). And since it tells you the number of valence electrons you can get a substantially reliable idea of how reactive the element is

Elements in the same column have the same number of valence electrons, and form ions with the same charge.
Oxygen has 6 valence electrons. A person can determine the number of valence electrons by looking at the periodic table. since oxygen is in the 6th column form the left, it has 6 valence electrons.
