In chemistry, the vertical columns on the Periodic Table, are known as groups or families. The elements belonging to the same group or family have the same number of valence electrons and hence similar properties.
The columns are called groups (or, sometimes, families). The rows are called periods.
No. The horizontal rows of the periodic table are called periods. The vertical columns are called groups, and sometimes called families.
The columns are groups or families. The rows are periods. The groups are numbered 1 to 18, with certain other distinctions. Group 18 is known as the noble gases. There are also larger groupings in to categories such as metals, non-metals, transistion metals, metaloids, etc.
The columns on a periodic table are called "groups" or "families." Groupings are based on the number of valence electrons elements within the same group have in common, which influences their chemical properties.
The columns on a periodic table are called "groups" or "families." These columns contain elements with similar chemical properties due to their shared number of electrons in the outermost energy level.
Groups. Sometimes called families.

The horizontal rows on the Periodic Chart are called Periods.The vertical columns on the are called Groups, or sometimes Families.
Groups on the periodic table are called families because elements within the same group share similar chemical properties due to having the same number of valence electrons. This similarity in properties is what defines them as a family.
Interest groups can sometimes are called pressure groups. Interest groups will also be called organizations or associations for special interests.
Because the data set is sometimes called a group
No. The horizontal rows of the periodic table are called periods. The vertical columns are called groups, and sometimes called families.
they can be called groups or families
I believe they are called families.
Families or groups
groups of families but groups is more commonly used
Families of elements with similar chemical properties are called "groups" or "families" on the periodic table. Elements within the same group typically have the same number of valence electrons, which gives them similar reactivity and chemical properties.
