Answer 1

I am sorry!

Answer 2

It's ok

Answer 4

Oh. :( I'm not really sure what the correct answer is now, But my second choice would be the number of electrons. Is that correct? Sorry :(

Answer 6

Darn it! Let me go look up a periodic table.

Answer 7

OH it's the number of Valence electrons! Is that correct?

Answer 9

For any neutral element No of protons=No of electrons. So if no. of proton is not equal then no of electron can also not be equal.

Answer 10

All the atomic numbers, protons, are different right? So my first choice was rather dumb then.

Answer 11

Elements in same group have same number of valence shell electron and thus have similar valency. This is the reason for their very similar chemical properties.

I was about to say that......! (not the dumb part)

If protons will be same then atomic number will also be same and then all the elements in the group will be same !

Answer 13

Oops! I'm extremely glad I checked with you then! If I need to double check anything is it ok for me to tag you? I do not want you to think I am cheating (I am not)

Answer 14

yeah sure, go ahead !

and i know u r not cheating...cheaters don't interact !

Answer 15

True, Thank you so much! I'll keep studying!
