How are the elements arranged?

Elements are arranged on the periodic table based on their atomic number, which is the number of protons in their nucleus. This arrangement groups elements with similar properties in columns called groups or families, while elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells.


Why there is a group of elements in periodic table?

What are groups in the periodic table?

Groups in the periodic table are vertical columns that contain elements with similar chemical properties. Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons, which determines their reactivity and chemical behavior. There are 18 groups in the periodic table.

What are the groups on the periodic table and how do they relate to the periodic period of elements?

The groups on the periodic table are vertical columns that contain elements with similar chemical properties. Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons, which determines their reactivity and chemical behavior. The periodic period of elements refers to the horizontal rows on the periodic table, which indicate the number of electron shells an element has. Elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells, but elements in the same group can be in different periods.


Table of periodic elements?

The periodic table is a set of elements organized by their atomic number, electron configurations, and recurring chemical properties. It consists of rows, known as periods, and columns, known as groups. Elements in the same group share similar chemical behaviors.
