The reason the periodic table is the shape that it is has to do with the electronic configurations of the elements. The periodic table is arranged so that all the elements in each period (row) have similar electronic configurations to the other elements in that period. That also often means that elements in the same group (column) show similar chemical reactivity. Electrons in atoms are arranged in different orbitals (named s, p, d, and âf).
The Periodic Table is an arrangement of the elements in order of atomic number. Columns in the table - groups. The elements in any one vertical column are said to be in the same group or family. Eight of the groups are numbered from left to right. Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties. The group number is the same as the number of electrons in the outer shell of all the elements in the group.
