Just follow the atomic numbers, it's that easy.
First-hand experience says the Periodic Table arranges elements mainly by increasing atomic number. Similarities in properties? That's just a bonus perk of the family tree!
Atoms are lined up by how many protons they have (atomic number) and their chemical similarities. Simple and effective!
Elements are arranged by increasing atomic number, which is the number of protons in an atom's nucleus. Each row (period) signifies a new principal energy level, while columns (groups) contain elements with similar chemical properties.
