I’m pretty sure the answer you’re looking for is science...but I’m not quite sure because your question is kinda vague
Answer:
yes
Explanation:
because it is used in electrical conduct.
m not sure
Dmitri Mendeleev, he realized that the physical and chemical properties of elements were related to their atomic mass and arranged them into groups (columns)
Periodic table is a table of elements arranged in periods and groups in terms similar chemical and physical characteristics.The ion charge of an element depends on the number of electrons may loose or gain to form a stable ion. Elements in group iv have four electrons in the outermost energy level, therefore their ionic charge would be +4 or - 4 since they can gain or loose 4 electrons to form ions.
