If an element is in the same vertical column of the Periodic Table, it means that it belongs to the same group or family of elements. Elements in the same group typically exhibit similar chemical properties and valence electron configurations. This similarity is due to their comparable reactivity and bonding behavior, which arise from their electron arrangements. For example, the alkali metals in Group 1 are all highly reactive and have one valence electron.
Beryllium, Calcium or any other element within the same family or group (vertical column on the periodic table)
Vertical columns of elements in the periodic table are called groups or families. Elements within the same group have similar chemical properties due to their similar electron configurations.
The electron configuration in the outer shell is the same for all of the elements in the same column. This results in some similar chemical properties between these elements in the same group (column).
a 'family' of elements or also called a group
The members of the same group have similar physical and chemical properties.
Elements in the same column, or vertical column, are known as "group" or "family." Each group contains elements with similar chemical properties due to their shared number of valence electrons.
The element in a given vertical column (or groups) have the same number of valence electrons and hence have similar properties.
Beryllium, Calcium or any other element within the same family or group (vertical column on the periodic table)
They are called groups...
The elements in the same vertical column have certain similar chemical properties hence they work as a family. Eg- Halogen family
Vertical columns of elements in the periodic table are called groups or families. Elements within the same group have similar chemical properties due to their similar electron configurations.

In the same column.
The electron configuration in the outer shell is the same for all of the elements in the same column. This results in some similar chemical properties between these elements in the same group (column).
Elements with the same number of valence electrons are in the same group (or vertical column).
Elements in the same vertical column of the periodic table are called groups or families. They have similar chemical properties and possess the same number of valence electrons, leading to similar behavior in reactions. The vertical column number indicates the number of valence electrons for elements in that group, with the first group having 1 valence electron and the last group having 8 valence electrons, except for the transition metals.
