Numbers and arrangements of electrons in their outermost shells.
Each vertical column in the periodic table is called a group. Elements within the same group share similar chemical properties due to their similar electron configurations. There are 18 groups in the modern periodic table.
A vertical column on the Periodic table on the periodic table is called group. There are 18 groups on the table. These groups are also referred to as families. Each element in a group has the same number of valence electrons and, therefore, similar chemical properties (there are some exceptions though).
In the periodic table, a group is a vertical column of elements that share similar chemical properties due to having the same number of valence electrons. There are 18 groups in the modern periodic table, each with its own unique characteristics and reactivity patterns. Examples of groups include the alkali metals (Group 1) and the halogens (Group 17).
The periodic table tells you that elements in the same group have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electrons. This influences how they react with other elements and helps predict their behavior in compounds.
Each (horizontal) row is called a '''period''', whereas each (vertical) column is called a group.

elements in a group have the same number of valence electrons
On the periodic table, the family nitrogen belongs to is Group Vb. In their outer electronic shell, each of the elements within this group have five electrons.
Each group has a group number.
Each row of the periodic table gives you one full electron shell, then you start a new shell when you start a new row. In each group you have the same number of electrons in the outer shell, you just get more shells as you go down the table.

They are the vertical columns on the Periodic Table. Each column (top to bottom) is considered to be a group or family.
A group, there ae 18 of them.
what property does each of the elements have
Each column is a group of chemical elements.
