Question

Do any of the elements have similar properties?

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes  

Explanation:

The elements in each Group of the Periodic Table have similar properties because they have the same number of valence electrons.

For example, the elements in Group 11 — copper, silver, and gold — are called the coinage metals.

They are often used to make coins because they are relatively unreactive and resistant to corrosion.

They can also be beat into sheets (malleable) and drawn into wires (ductile) and are good conductors of heat and electricity.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Many elements have similar properties. This can be seen in how periodic table is arranged.  The vertical columns on the periodic table are called groups or families because of their similar chemical behavior.  All the members of a family of elements have the same number of valence electrons and similar chemical properties.  

For eg: Lithium, Sodium, and Potassium fall under group one in periodic table. These elements exhibit similar properties such as being extremely reactive.
