18
There are 18 main groups in the modern periodic table of elements.
The group number tells you the number of valence electrons in the outer shell. This is important because it is the valence electrons that participate in bonding, and thus in determining the properties of the element.

The periodic table has 7 periods and 18 groups. The order of elements is governed by the number of protons.
In the modern version of the periodic table, the elements are arranged in increasing order of the atomic number. The chemical properties of an element can be predicted by its group. For example group 1 elements react violently to give away one electron to form +1 ions where group 18 elements are inert in standard temperature and pressure. This periodic table was introduced by Henry Mosley.

The modern periodic table contains approximately 118 elements.

There are 18 groups and 7 periods in the modern periodic table.
Both arrange elements in groups of elements having similar properties.
Both arrange elements in groups of elements having similar properties.
7 periods and 18 groups are there on the modern periodic table.
Representative elements, also known as main group elements, include groups 1, 2, and 13-18 on the periodic table. Group 1 contains alkali metals, group 2 contains alkaline earth metals, and groups 13-18 contain p-block elements. These groups are called representative elements because they display a wide range of chemical properties.
It is called a Group. There are 18 groups in the modern periodic table.

Elements on the modern periodic table are arranged in order of increasing atomic number, which represents the number of protons in the nucleus. This arrangement helps to group elements with similar properties in the same vertical column or group. The periodic table is divided into periods (rows) and groups (columns) based on these properties.
