They all have 6 valence electrons and typically form -2 ions (although others are possible). They are called the chalcogens or oxygen family.

All elements in Group 7 have the same number of electrons in their outermost shell and this number corresponds to the group number.
True. In geometry it is sometimes helpful to group objects and look at similarities between them.
the similarities between compounds and mixtures are that they are both made up of two or more elements and that they could both be separated and then mixed with different elements to make a new mixture and compound.
They are both hard like my boner.
they belong to the same group.
chalcogens
Group 16 elements have same number of valence electrons i.e. 6 . It has charge of 2-.
It does have a name. Group 16 elements are called "chalcogens".
Group 16 elements.
Bridge elements are elements which show similarities in properties diagonally with the period of the next group. Eg:- Li -> Mg
Group 16 of the periodic table of the elements (chalcogens elements)
Group 17 and group 16 in general.
group 16 or The Chalcogens group.
All elements in group 16 share similar properties because their valence shells all contain the s2p4 electron configuration.
All elements in group 16 share similar properties because their valence shells all contain the s2p4 electron configuration.
In the Period Table of the Elements, there are 18 groups, Groups 1-18.Group 0 does not exist.
By listing their collective and individual properties, pointing out similarities and differences.
