All the elements in the Periodic Table of elements are electrically neutral; they do not have charges as elements, although they have the potential to engage in chemical reactions that will turn them into charged ions, in most cases. The different groups tell you what kinds of chemical reactions the elements are capable of, not what kind of charge they have.

In which sets are the charges given correctly for all the ions?

There are three sets of ions where the charges are given correctly: Group 1 elements (e.g., Na+), Group 2 elements (e.g., Mg2+), and aluminum (Al3+). These ions have fixed charges that do not vary.


What are the charges of the group 3?

Group VA (15th column from the right) has a charge of negative 3. Elements in this group include nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, and antimony.


Why do group 13 elements have different properties than group 12 elements?

theres a difference in the number of valence electrons


What groups of elements have various charges?

Transition metals, metalloids, and nonmetals are groups of elements that can have various charges. Transition metals often exhibit multiple oxidation states due to the varying number of electrons they can lose or gain. Metalloids, such as silicon and arsenic, can exhibit different charges depending on the specific compounds they form. Nonmetals, especially those from Group 16 and 17, can also form ions with different charges by gaining or losing electrons.


Do elements in the d block form ions of only one charge?

No, elements in the d block can form multiple ions with different charges. This is because they can lose different numbers of electrons from their outer d orbitals to achieve a stable electron configuration.


What is different about the group 18 elements?

Group 19 elements have 8 valence electrons (obey octet rule) and are hence stable.


Oxidation number for first 20 elements?

The oxidation numbers for the first 20 elements in the periodic table are typically as follows: Group 1 elements: +1; Group 2 elements: +2; Group 13 elements: +3; Group 14 elements: +4 or -4; Group 15 elements: -3; Group 16 elements: -2; Group 17 elements: -1; Group 18 elements: 0. Keep in mind that oxidation numbers can vary in different compounds and contexts.


The atomic charges of each group?

There's no charge within the atom of each group since there is a same number of electrons (negatively charged) and protons ( positively charged). The charge does not change unless after ionic bonding. The atomic charge changes depending on the reaction.


What is oxygen's change?

Oxygen usually has a -2 charge as it is a group VI nonmetal. Most of the elements in group VI have -2 charges when they form ions.


What are the elements between 57 and 70 called?

Elements between 57 and 70 belongs to the f group. Elements from La - Lu belongs to this group. These are called Lanthanides.These elements are Lanthanides. They are placed separately. They have different chemical properties.


What elements are in groups 3-4 of the periodic table?

Transition elements are present in group 3-4. These elements have different properties.


What isn't the same of elements of group 2?

There are a lot of things that aren't the same of elements in group 2. Probably the main thing is that they all have a different outermost energy level (different atomic radii).
