What are two things you can tell about an element based on its location on the periodic table? (Hint: use the words periods and groups)
Periods (horizontal rows) tell how many shells of electrons and element has, and groups (vertical columns) tell how many electrons are in the element's outer shell. Elements in the same group have similar physical and chemical properties.
