The elements is a group on the Periodic Table are considered a family because they have similar electron configurations and similar properties.
The elements in vertical group are called families because the elements possess same characteristics.
Because each element in a group shares the same or similar chemical properties as the other elements in that group. The elements in a group share chemical behavior much like members of a family share qualities.
because they spend Christmas and other holidays together and love each other. For example, chlorine is in a family with calcium and einsteinium because they all go to calcium's house for a new years eve bash and things
Because they are closely related elements which have similar properties. They have the same number of valence electrons which gives them very similar chemical properties.
For example, you, your sibling (if any) and your parents comprise a family because your genes or chemical composition is very similar when compared to other families. You are closely related. In the same way, the elements in a family are very closely related.
because they all have something in common, that is why they are in the same group in the Periodic Table which is also called a family :]
The elements is a group on the periodic table are considered a family because they have similar electron configurations and similar properties.
They have the same number of valence electrons and hence have similar chemical properties
Elements in the same family have the same number of valence electrons and hence generally have similar properties.
They have alike characteristics and react alike. Alike to your family, you all act alike or look alike or have alike characteristics
On the periodic table columns are called groups
The vertical columns on the periodic table are called groups or families.
No. The horizontal rows of the periodic table are called periods. The vertical columns are called groups, and sometimes called families.

group or family
Groups on the periodic table have similar chemical and sometimes physical properties. Families (human families) generally have similar properties, hence families on the periodic table.
