How do atoms in a group have simular outer shell electron structures giving examples?
Elements in: Group One: Have 1 Electron In Outer Shell Group Two: 2 Electrons In Outer Shell Group Three: 3 Electrons In Outer Shell and so forth. An example of an element in group one would be ceasium. Its structure is 2, 8, 18, 18, 8, 1 . An example of an element in group two would be radium. Its structure is 2, 8, 18, 32, 18, 8, 2. If you want to sound even more clever, you could talk about electronic configuration between the groups. It starts of with the 1s orbital which can hold 4 electrons, then the 2s orbital which can hold 4; then the 2d orbital which can hold 6 and so forth. There are 3 blocks on the table, the S block, the P block and the D block.
