Rb
Any element in the alkali metal group would have similar chemical properties, for example they all react easily to water.
Elements in the same group (column) have the same properties. All the elements in group one have similar properties. All the elements in group two have similar properties. And so on...
Elements in the same group or column on the periodic table have similar chemical properties. Helium is in group 18 or the Nobel gases. Elements with similar chemical properties would be the rest of the elements below Helium Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon
Elements in the same group as zinc would be expected to have similar properties.
Uranium and neodymium are very different chemical elements.
Elements in the same group as cesium
To find elements that are chemically similar, you don't need to look further than the related elements in the same family (columns). The periodic table is formed so elements in the rows have similar chemical properties. Cesium is in the first family, the alkali metals. All metals in this family are similar and will react explosively with water. The reactivity increases as you go down the column, with francium being the most reactive. But since francium is radioactive, I would say rubidium is most similar to cesium.

Iron and platinum respectively.
Elements in a same group have same number of valence electrons and hence similar physical and chemical properties.
There is no fully objective answer to this question. Many chemists would consider that two lanthanide elements with atomic numbers differing by only one would be likely to qualify. Another possibility is the pair zirconium and hafnium. These are very similar in most chemical characteristics but differ greatly in electron capture tendencies in nuclear reactors.
