What element would have properties most similar to the new element?
The newest officially discovered elements are Ununquadiumand Ununhexium so, we'll focus on those.Ununquadium will be part of the Carbon series, so we would expect it to have properties similar to those elements (e.g. 4 electrons in the outer shell). The closest relation to it in that group would be Lead.Ununhexium will be part of the Oxygen series, so, again, we would expect it to have properties similar to those elements (e.g. 6 electrons in the outer shell). The closest relation to it in that group would be Polonium, which is also the first radioactive element.

Why might you expect silicon dioxide and carbon dioxide to have similar melting and boling points?
You Ultimately would not expect them to have similar melting and boiling points.This is because Carbon Dioxide is a gas, it might have strong covalent bonds between their atoms but between their molecules they have weak intermolecular forces, therefore these forces are easily overcome during heating in lower temperaturesHowever when you look at Silicon Dioxide, it has a macromolecular structure. In other words the whole solid is actually just one molecule which its atoms are each covalently bonded to each other. Therefore since it has strong covalent bonds between them you would expect them to have extremely high melting and boiling points.Diamond is a macromolecular structure and it has a melting point of 3006 degrees centigrade. You could expect Silicon Dioxide's melting point (and boiling point) to be similarly high.
Where on the periodic table would you expect to find elements with similar properties and chemical characteristics?
Elements in a same group have same number of valence electrons and hence similar physical and chemical properties.
