Understand that the periodic table is organized in two main directions: horizontally and vertically.
Recognize that the horizontal rows in the periodic table are called "Periods."
Identify that the vertical columns in the periodic table are called "Groups."
Note that "Families" is another term often used interchangeably with "Groups" to describe vertical columns because elements in the same group/family share similar chemical properties.
Remember that "Blocks" refer to sections of the periodic table based on electron configurations (s, p, d, f blocks), not the vertical columns.
