There is at least one oxidation number shared by all the elements in a Periodic Table column, but some of the elements may have more than one oxidation number and some of these additional oxidation numbers may not be possible for all the elements in a column.

Do elements in the same group have similar atomic numbers?
No. Elements in the same group have same number of valence electrons.
How is charge related to oxidation number?
the charge on a mono-atomic ion is the same as the oxidation number, for a polyatomic ion the charge is the sum of the oxidation numbers of its constituent elements.
What do elements within a group have a similar number of?
Chemical elements that are in the same group within the periodic table have the same numbers of electrons in the outermost shell. This gives them similar reactivity.
What do elements in the same group have?
They have the same number of valence electrons which, in general, gives them similar oxidation numbers and other similar chemical and physical properties. The similarities are most pronounced in the groups at either side of the standard periodic table, and are least pronounced for the transition and rare earth elements.
Which elements are most likely to react in the same manner in a chemical reaction?
A pair of elements in the same group are more likely to have similar properties. This is why groups are also called families. In the main group elements, groups 1,2, 13-18, the elements in a group have the same numbers of valence electrons in their outermost energy levels. This accounts for the fact that they behave in a similar matter in chemical reactions.

No. Elements in the same group have same number of valence electrons.

How do you predict an elements group?
they have same numbers of electrons.
How are the atoms of the elements in group 2 the same?
They share the same number of electrons (=2) in the valence shell: they have the same oxidation state of +2
Are the numbers of neutrons the same for elements in the same column on the periodic table?
No. It is not the same. the number of valence electrons are same for the elements in the same column (group).
Are elements in the same group likely to have oxidation number why or why not?
generally yes. because they have the same number of valence electrons but there are exceptions as we go down the group due to inert pair effect
What do elements within a group have a similar number of?
Chemical elements that are in the same group within the periodic table have the same numbers of electrons in the outermost shell. This gives them similar reactivity.
Do each of the elements in Group 1 have the same or different numbers of electrons?
The Elements have a different Total Number of Electrons, but the same number of Valence Electrons.

What is special about the elements in the same group?
elements are in the same group since they react similarly to other elements in that group.
How are the element within a row different?
They have different numbers of valence electrons.
