Periods (across the periodic table) have increasing Atomic Mass. Groups (down the table) have similar properties and reactive natures.
Periods on the periodic table go across and are based on the number of unexcited electrons increasing as you read across. Groups on the periodic table are read down the table and share the same number of valence electrons.
According to the modern Periodic Law, atomic number affects the physical and chemical properties of an element, so the elements are arranged in an ascending order according to their atomic number...therefore, it increases by one across a row of the periodic table.
The North America Convention Periodic Table is a variant of the traditional periodic table that places the lanthanides and actinides separately at the bottom of the table, rather than within the main body of the table. This arrangement is done to reduce the width of the table and make it easier to read.
I hope I'm not too late! On the left side, the atoms are smaller and as you go across they get bigger but this pattern works like a typewriter... when you get back to the left again they start out small and grow again and so on. on the top, the atoms are less radioactive. Guess what goes on in the bottom? Duh, very radioactive. Hope I helped!!!The rows in The Periodic Table of Elements, as you read it, the rows are considered to be a different period. ( Period-ic Table.) Elements have something in common if they are in the same row. All the elements in a period or row have the same number of atomic orbitals. All the elements in the top row (first period) have one orbital for its electron. The second row (second period) has two electrons orbiting. The columns have special names and rules too. A column is called a group. The elements in a group have the very same number of electrons in their outer orbital. Every element in group one has one electron in its outer shell. (and so on.)Hope it helped. I copied it from my Periodic Table Essay for school.The above answer is also correct. I am just specifying.
The two rows at the bottom of the periodic table are taken out to make the table more compact and easier to read. These two rows are known as the lanthanides and actinides series. They are removed and placed below the main table to avoid making the entire table wider than it is tall.
because the no. of shells in the atoms across the Periodic Table remains the same
It is increasing consecutively.
you read it from left to right
Periods on the periodic table go across and are based on the number of unexcited electrons increasing as you read across. Groups on the periodic table are read down the table and share the same number of valence electrons.
Atoms do not simply get larger as you move across the periodic table because the increase in positive charge in the nucleus is accompanied by an increase in the number of electrons, leading to increased electron-electron repulsions that can counteract the increased nuclear charge. Additionally, the increase in effective nuclear charge (Zeff) across a period can cause the electrons to be pulled closer to the nucleus, reducing the size of the atom.
No one can understand chemistry without understanding the periodic table; it is the most fundamental part of our chemical knowledge.
Read the explanations under your periodic table; not all periodic tables have colors.

he read about it in the newspaper
Mendeleev's Periodic Table -- the reason for periodicity -- is explained by the arrangement of the electrons around the nucleus. *Read your chemistry book* :D
Different periodic tables show different information about an atom's properties. On the normal periodic table you can read the atomic number, which is the value of the number of protons in the nucleus.
