There are 117 known elements at this time, although about 20 or so of these are synthetically prepared, and several of those elements only have a lifetime of fractions of a second before decomposing. And some elements have only had one or two single atoms produced, such as Unonoctium (atomic number 118)!

See the Web Links for a Periodic Table. Click on any element in the table for more information about that element.

Which group has four valence electrons?

Group 4 elements in the periodic table have four valence electrons. This includes elements like carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), and lead (Pb).


What other elements have similar properties to carbon?

Elements in Group 14 on the Periodic Table have similar properties to carbon. These elements are carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), lead (Pb), and flerovium (Fl). Each of these elements has two electrons in the outermost p orbital, the electron configuration ns2np2, and they tend to adopt oxidation sates of +4 (+2 for the heavier elements due to the inert pair effect). Silicon is most similar to carbon.
