Elements in the same group behave similarly because they all have the same number of electrons in their outer-most orbits. These electrons are what determines the types of bonds and chemical reactions the atom can undergo.

What do all elements in group 7 have in common?
All elements in group 7 have the same no. of electrons in their outermost shells... and this no. correspondes to the group no.
What do all group 14 elements have in common periodic table?
All the Group 14 elements has 4 electrons in its outer energy level.
Which elements will not form bonds to other elements?
The elements in Group 0 - Inert Gases group are all highly unreactive and so don't combine with other elements.
From all salt elements which group is most soluble?
group 1A
Which two elements are in the same group or family?
According to Chemists, the elements of sodium and chlorine belong to the same atomic family as well as carbon and lead.
What atom will behave like Na?
All of the elements in group 1 on the periodic table will behave similarly to sodium.
How do the electron configurations within?
The core of the configuration is the same for all elements in a group, the outer shell electrons are also arranged similarly.
What do you mean by the Elements behavior?
the elements all behave differently an elements behaviors are what happens when they are reacted upon
What does the study of the periodic table have to do with classification and prediction?
The elements in the Periodic Table are arranged so that elements in the same group (column) will exhibit certain similar characteristics with others in that same group, but different periods (rows). So you can predict, with a certain degree of confidence, how a certain element may behave by where it is located on the periodic table, based on what you know about how other elements in the same group behave. This is mainly due to the valence electrons (the outermost electrons) being the same configuration as others in the same group. The valence electrons are a big determining factor as how that element will react with other elements. They do not all behave exactly the same, but similar.
What is special about an element?
All substances are made of tiny particles called atoms. An element though, contains just one type of atom. So all atoms of the element gold are alike :) hope this helps!
What do all the elements in this group form?
Of what group??
What do all elements in group 7 have in common?
All elements in group 7 have the same no. of electrons in their outermost shells... and this no. correspondes to the group no.
What do all elements in a group have on a periodic table?
All elements in a group have same chemical properties. They have same number of valence electrons.
What Elements on the left side of the table are classified as what type of elements?
Group 1 Elements (elements in the first group [column]) are classed as Alkali Metals. Group 2 Elements (elements in the second group [column]) are classed as Alkaline Earth Metals. All elements not in a representative group are classed as Transition Metals. Group 3 Elements (elements in the third full group [coulumn]) are classed as Earth Metals
Where on the periodic table would you find five elements that have very similar properties?
Elements in the same group (column) have the same properties. All the elements in group one have similar properties. All the elements in group two have similar properties. And so on...
What do all group 14 elements have in common periodic table?
All the Group 14 elements has 4 electrons in its outer energy level.
What is about all elements that can be found in the same group?
All elements in the groups (excluding transition metals) have the same number of electrons as the group number.
