The names are assigned to them based on their properties.
K refers to potassium. it is placed in alkali metal family i.e. group 1. Calcium is placed in alkaline earth family i.e group-2.
No, elements in the same column are in the same family.
Yes, elements within the same family have similar chemical properties due to their shared number of valence electrons. This results in similar reactivity and chemical behavior among elements in the same family.
Such atoms belong to a group in the periodic table of elements.
No, on the periodic table of elements a family is a group of elements that are in the same row.Answered by Faustin Obedi

No, elements in the same column are in the same family.
Elements in the same family-assuming family means classifications such as non-metals, metals-have similar properties.
Elements with similar electron configurations are placed in the same group.
Yes, elements within the same family have similar chemical properties due to their shared number of valence electrons. This results in similar reactivity and chemical behavior among elements in the same family.
Hydrogen is placed in group 1, along with alkali metals
Such atoms belong to a group in the periodic table of elements.
a family is a column of elements a period is a row of elements
elements in the same column are in the same group or family. the rows in the Periodic Table are called periods
