All elements in group 16 share similar properties because their valence shells all contain the s2p4 electron configuration.
They all have the same number of valence electrons.
Elements that have similar chemical properties occupy the same group on the Periodic Table.
similar chemical properties and characteristics
The elements in a group have the similar chemical properties dueto presence of same no of electrons in their outermost shell but they differ physically because physical properties are related to their atomic sizes from top to bottom in a group atomic size increases so their physical properties also differ.
2 unpaired valence electrons in their elemental state.
Because the members of a group have the same number of valence electrons.
All elements in group 16 share similar properties because their valence shells all contain the s2p4 electron configuration.
Elements that have similar chemical properties occupy the same group on the Periodic Table.
The vertical elements are called groups. They have similar chemical properties.
similar chemical properties and characteristics
Groups. For example, the halogens share properties, the noble gases share properties.
The elements in a group have the similar chemical properties dueto presence of same no of electrons in their outermost shell but they differ physically because physical properties are related to their atomic sizes from top to bottom in a group atomic size increases so their physical properties also differ.
All elements in group 16 share similar properties because their valence shells all contain the s2p4 electron configuration.
2 unpaired valence electrons in their elemental state.
in the same group( family) have the same electronic configurationhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_(periodic_table)
Because the members of a group have the same number of valence electrons.
Yes, they do (since they have the same number of valence electrons).
Elements in the same group or family share the same number of valence electrons unless it is in groups 4-12 they vary and the have similar properties
