Atoms that have the same number of valence electrons in their outer shell?
Such atoms belong to a group in the periodic table of elements.
Why do elements in the same families share all of the same properties?
because they have the same number of electrons in their valence shell / orbitals.
The elements within a group have a similar number of?
Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons. These are the outer-shell electrons that react with other elements.
What order do the elements in the periodic table follow?
Elements are arranged according to atomic number.Elements in same column have same characteristic properties.Elements in same row has same number of electronic shell.
Elements react with other elements based on the number of what in their outer shell?
Elements react with other elements based on the number of electrons in their outer shell, also called valence electrons.
What do elements in each group have in common?
Electron configuration - they have the same number of elements in their outer 'electron shell'. This induces them to have similar bonding properties, and so elements in the same group are chemically similar.
What do elements have the same of in a column in the periodic table?
The elements have same number of electrons in outermost shell and so same chemical properties.
Elements in a group or family have?
the same number of valence electrons (which is the same number of electrons in the atom's outermost shell)
What elements of a group have the same number of?
Valence electrons (electrons in the outer shell)
What do all elements in the same row of the periodic table have in common?
Elements that are in the same horizontal (left to right) rows, have similar outer shells.
What is the similarity that the elements in the same period have?
Elements in same period have same shell. The electron enters outermost shell.
Why are the elements in the vertical row similar?
They have the same number of electrons in their outer or valence shell.
Atoms that have the same number of valence electrons in their outer shell?
Such atoms belong to a group in the periodic table of elements.
Why do elements in the same families share all of the same properties?
because they have the same number of electrons in their valence shell / orbitals.
What do elements with in a family tend to share?
similar chemical properties and characteristics
What can be said about all the elements in a group?
They all have the same number of valence electrons in their outer shell
The elements within a group have a similar number of?
Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons. These are the outer-shell electrons that react with other elements.
