It is called a Group. There are 18 groups in the modern periodic table.
the answer is groups.Added:There are 18 main groups and two special ones (with 14 lanthanides and 14 actinides respectively).Groups contain elements with the same 'outer' electron configuration (valence electrons).Note: Vertical rows are actually called: columns
The vertical columns on the periodic table are called groups or families.
The vertical columns on the periodic table are called groups. The table is arranged in such a way that all elements in the same group are similar and have the same number of valence electrons.
they are called groups or families
Groups in the periodic table are vertical columns that contain elements with similar chemical properties. Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons, which determines their reactivity and chemical behavior. There are 18 groups in the periodic table.
the vertical columns in the periodic table are known as groups.
the vertical columns are known as groups
The vertical columns of a periodic table are called groups or families. They share similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electrons.
groups are the vertical columns on the periodic table
Vertical columns are known as groups.
Vertical columns are called groups. Horizontal rows are known as periods.
false The vertical columns are known as groups whereas the horizontal rows are known as periods.
A vertical column is called a 'group.' A horizontal row is called a 'period,' thus the periodic table.
The vertical columns of the periodic table are called groups or families.
Vertical columns are numbered from 1-18. There are 18 vertical columns.
There are NO vertical ROWS, because rows run horizontally, and COLUMNS run vertically. There are 18 vertical columns in the periodic table.
The vertical columns.
