What does group 6A elements have compared to group 2A?

Group 2A * Known as Alkaline earth elements * All are metals * Occur only in compounds * React with oxygen in the general formula EO (where O is oxygen and E is Group 2A element)


Are the elements in group 4 metals or non metals?

All you have to do is look on your periodic table of elements. Metals are to the left and non-metals are to the right. This way we know group four are metals.


what is the most reactive (non-metals) group in the periodic table?

The halogens (Group 17) are the most reactive non-metals in the periodic table. They have seven valence electrons and readily gain an electron to achieve a full outer shell, resulting in high reactivity. This group includes elements such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine.


What is group 6a on the periodic table called?

Group 6A on the periodic table is called the chalcogens. This group includes elements like oxygen, sulfur, and selenium, which share similar chemical properties. They typically form -2 oxidation states in compounds.


The atoms in one group can form compounds with the atoms in the other group but not with atoms in their own group which atoms are in each group?

Metals can form ionic bonds with non-metals. Non-metals can form bonds with each other covalently. Two metals cannot form compounds with each other.AnswerIf you mean group x can form compounds with group y but not with atoms in group x. Then group x is the metals and group y is the non-metals.The question is a little confusing as group one and group two mean somthing in chemistry. The chemistry generally group one and two is used to refer to two different types of metals called the alkali metalg and the alkaline earths. They are in these groups on the periodic table.

What supscripts would be used if an alkaline earth metal and a non metal from group 6a?

None. The alkaline earth metals have a valance of 2 and the 6A nonmetals have a valance of 6. So the alkaline earth's donate two electrons and the 6A's accept 2 electrons. MgO CaS by example


What Element in group 1 on the periodic table is not a metal?

Hydrogen is the only element in Group 1 that is not a metal. The other heavier metals in group one, Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, and Francium are all called alkali metals, which are highly reactive since they do not have a full valence shell.


Is group 7 metals or non metals?

non-metal


What periodic group is made up only of non metals?

Group 18 of the Periodic Table has only non metals. Additionally, the stable elements of group 17 are also non metals.


What is oxygens group number?

Oxygen is a non-metal in the group 6A of the periodic table.


What does the groups in the periodic table of elements describe?

it describes what are metals, non-metals and what are metalloids (semi-metals) group 1: Alkali Metals (reactive) group 2: Alkaline earth metals (reactive) group 3-12: transition metals group 13-17: non metals group 17: non metal, BUT ALSO a halogen group 18: Noble gases (inert - non reactive) Hope i helped you out, :) Alana


What does group 6A elements have compared to group 2A?
