Understand that the periodic table is organized into rows and columns, each with specific names.
Recall that the horizontal rows in the periodic table are called 'Periods'.
Recognize that the vertical columns in the periodic table are called 'Groups' or sometimes 'Families'.
Note that the term 'Block' refers to sections of the periodic table based on electron subshells (s, p, d, f blocks), not columns.
Therefore, the correct term for a column on the periodic table is 'Group'.
