The three families that are found in the center portion of the periodic table are the Iron group, the Cobalt group and the nickel group. There are 18 families in the periodic table.
Group 14 elements, mainly silicon or germanium are semiconductors. If they are dopped with group 13 elements such as gallium / indium or with group 15 elements such as arsenic / antimony, then the conducting ability increases.
Ga stands for Gallium . It is present in group-13 of the periodic table.
Families in the periodic table share similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electrons. This leads to similar reactivity and bonding patterns within each family. Families are organized into columns on the periodic table based on their shared characteristics.

It can tell you crtain characteristics of that element.
Metalloids or semiconductors
No, semiconductors are not noble gases. Semiconductors are a type of material that can conduct electricity under certain conditions, while noble gases are a group of non-reactive elements in the periodic table.
Families (or groups) are the vertical columns of the periodic table. Period is horizontal rows.
