Not families, Periods (Apex)
This periodic pattern is known as the periodic table. It allows us to predict the properties of elements based on their position in the table. The arrangement is based on the number of protons in the nucleus of each element, which determines its chemical behavior.
The element with the electron configuration 2s1 is lithium (Li). However, there is no element with the electron configuration S2d1 as "S" and "d" are not valid subshells in the electron configuration notation based on the periodic table.
By looking at the group number you can tell how many valance electrons there are ex: Group 1= 1 valance electrons Group 2-12= 2 valance electrons Group 13= 3 valance electrons Group 14= 4 valance electrons Group 15= 5 valance electrons Group 16= 6 valance electrons Group 17= 7 valance electrons Group 18= 8 valance electrons
The modern periodic table does a lot of things. It organizes elements in order of electron orbitals for one thing (1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, ect..). It also has all noble gases stacked on top of each other helping to determine the columns of 1-8 valence electrons. It seperates all metals from nonmetals and elements in the same column will have similar physical and chemical properties.
Hydrogen is placed separately. It has one valence electron. It is placed at the top in periodic table.
Each family in the periodic table has its characteristic properties based on the number of valence electrons they have. Valence electrons determine the chemical behavior of an element and are responsible for its reactivity and bonding patterns with other elements.

The valence of an element is typically written as a positive or negative number to indicate the number of electrons gained or lost by an atom to attain a stable electron configuration. It can be determined based on the group number of the element on the periodic table for main group elements. Roman numerals in parentheses are sometimes used for transition metals to denote their variable valence states.
An element's electron configuration determines its chemical properties, which in turn influence its placement on the periodic table. Elements with similar electron configurations tend to exhibit similar chemical behavior and are grouped together on the periodic table in columns (groups). The periodic table is organized based on similarities in electron configurations to help predict an element's properties based on its location.
Elements are located on the periodic table based off of their atomic number, but the vertical columns they are in (groups) show how many valence electrons they have. If an element were in Group 3 of the periodic table, it would have 3 valence electrons, and so on. This doesn't apply to the Transition Metals, so one should skip straight to Group 14, where the elements all have 4 valence electrons. Group 15 has 5, Group 16, 6, etc. The one exception to this is Helium, which is in Group 18 but only has 2.
The Periodic Table of the Elements contains every element known to man. On the Periodic Table, the elements are classified into periods (rows) and groups (columns). Elements are placed near elements with similar characteristics to them.
The periodic table is based on an element's atomic number, which is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. Elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number, which also dictates their unique placement in the periodic table.
If the xkcd periodic table was used to create a new element, it would likely be a fictional or humorous element, as the xkcd periodic table is not based on scientific accuracy.
Based on the periodicity of the elements regarding properties, reactivity, valence electrons, etc.
yes
Yes, an element's properties can be predicted based on its location in the periodic table. Elements in the same group (column) have similar chemical properties due to having the same number of valence electrons. Elements also display trends in properties across periods (rows) due to changes in atomic structure.
