Understanding the Periodic Table: Groups, Periods, and Element Families

The periodic table organizes elements into rows (periods) and columns (groups), each with unique properties. Groups are named based on the type of elements they contain, such as the Halogen Family, Alkali Metals, and Noble Gases. The bottom periods consist of two series: the Lanthanoid Series and the Actinoid Series, showcasing elements with special characteristics. This structured layout aids in the study and understanding of chemical behavior, element classification, and relationships within the table.
