The 8 groups of the periodic table?

Answer 1

alkali metals, alkali earth metals, halogens, noble gases, transition metals and there are only 5 not 8

Answer 2

GROUP 1- The Alkali Metals are the first group in the Periodic Table. They include Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, and Francium.

GROUP 2- On the Periodic table, Group 2 (IIA) consists of beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, and radium. This family of elements is known as the alkaline earthmetals, or just the alkaline earths. Although early chemists gave the name "earths" to a group of naturally occurring substances that were unaffected by heat and insoluble in water, the alkaline earth metals are also usually found in the continental crust. In contrast, Group 1 compounds and ions tend to concentrate in the ocean.

GROUP 3-For the curious, Sc is the symbol for the element "Scandium", which is element number 21 in the periodic table of elements. The element is present in minerals that at the time could only be found in Scandinavia, hence the name. Scandium is a very light silver-white metal which has been of increasing interest lately in the design of spacecrafts due to its high melting point.

GROUP 4-Titanium is a paradox. Supplies of pure titanium are rare, though titanium ores such as ilmenite and rutile are very common. There is more titanium in the earth's crust than there is nickel, zinc, chromium, tin, lead, Mercury, and manganese combined.

GROUP 5- Vanadium is a metallic element with the atomic number 23 and the symbol V. On the periodic table of elements, it is found in Group 5, and in Period 4 between titanium and chromium. It is referred to as a "transition metal."

GROUP 6- Chromium is a trace mineral that assists with burning carbohydrates and fat.

GROUP 7- Manganese is a mineral found in trace amounts in the human body, mostly in the bones, liver, pancreas and kidneys.

GROUP 8- Iron is a metallic chemical element which has been utilized by humans for centuries.
You have to be more specific about the groups cause there are 18 groups

Answer 3

The periodic table is divided into eight groups based on similar chemical properties. These groups are the alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition metals, halogens, noble gases, metalloids, other nonmetals, and lanthanides/actinides. Each group has specific characteristics and trends in terms of reactivity and properties.

Answer 4

Groups 1A and 2A are the first two columns on the left (s orbital) 5A - 8A are the columns starting from boron to helium (p orbital)

Answer 5

The group numbers are located along the top of the periodic table.
