    Explain how an element’s group in the periodic table can be used to predict its outer shell electrons. (3 marks) The element’s group in the periodic table predicts how many electrons are in it’s outer shell. For example, Sodium is in group 1, and has one electron in its outer shell. For elements in groups 13-18, the last digit of the group predicts how many electrons in its outer shell. For example, silicon is in group 14 and has 4 electrons in its outer shell. This does not apply to groups

Just a few thing that I will go into more detail about are how the elements were sorted, about how the elements are sorted into families, and what elements were added. But before we get into how the two tables compare and contrast we have to understand The periodic table and how to read it. Mendeleev’s periodic table looks nothing like the present day periodic table but it has the same concept. Like
