What about elements is used to arrange them in the periodic table of the elements?

Answer 1

It was the Individual Element's capability [& capacity] to React and Combine: as in the meshing of Electron Orbitals. - OR NOT, as in the case(s) of the Noble Gases. The Noble Gases were named because of their propensity to ignore their neighbors due to their inability to form covalent bonds, having no [available] 'valence shell' electrons to proffer for potential sharing.

Answer 3

The amount of electrons and protons in an atom of an element is used to place an element in the Periodic Table. Periods (rows) show elements with amount of electrons increasing with each step. Groups (columns) show elements with the same amount of electrons in the outer shell of that atom, with one shell being added with each step down.

Answer 4

Elements are arranged in the periodic table based on their atomic number, which represents the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. Elements are grouped in columns called groups or families based on similar chemical properties, and in rows called periods based on the number of electron shells in their atoms. The periodic table helps in organizing elements in a systematic way, providing valuable information on the properties and behavior of each element.

Answer 5

Your question is not quite coherent, but I can tell you that elements in the periodic table are arranged in order to place elements having the same valance in columns.

Answer 6

Atomic number is the property that is used to arrange the elements in periodic table. The concept was given by Henry Moseley.
