The vertical column in a Periodic Table is called "The Group" and there are 8 groups in the periodic table, I through O or VIII.
They are called Groups or sometimes Families. For many the periodic table has 8 groups but when you also include the transition metals, then there are 18 groups which gives you a better understanding when you are working out the electron arrangement within the atom's structure.

On what chart can information about elements be found?

Information about elements can be found on a periodic table chart, which organizes elements based on their atomic number, chemical properties, and electron configuration. It provides valuable information such as each element's symbol, atomic number, atomic mass, and other properties.


How do you create a periodic chart using 26 imaginary elements?

To create a periodic chart with 26 imaginary elements, you can assign unique symbols to each element, starting from element 1 to element 26. Organize the elements in rows and columns based on their properties and atomic number. You can also include other relevant information like atomic mass and electron configuration to make your periodic chart more detailed.


Why is Hydrogen Lithium Sodium and Potassium are all stacked on top of each other on this chart.?

Hydrogen, lithium, sodium, and potassium are all placed in the same column (Group 1) of the periodic table because they share similar chemical properties due to having one electron in their outermost energy level. This commonality makes them part of the alkali metal group, leading to their vertical alignment on the periodic table.
