Think of it like a big scientific family reunion: elements are lined up by their atomic number, and those sharing characteristics sit in the same column (group)!
The table's rows are called periods and the columns are called groups, with each group having elements with similar chemical properties!
Let's keep it simple: it鈥檚 all about the atomic number and how elements behave. Same column = similar chemical properties.
