Hey everyone in this example, we need to identify the group name for each element given below. Starting with our first element barium. We want to recall that barium is located in group two a. On our periodic table. And we should recall that group to a. Are considered alkaline earth medals. Next we have in example be the atom chlorine. We want to recall that chlorine on our periodic tables is located in group seven A. And we should recall that group seven a. Is equivalent to the halogen group. Next we have group or example see neon. We want to recall that neon is in group eight A. On a periodic tables and that corresponds to the group the noble gas group an example D. Were given the atoms sodium. We should recall that sodium is in group one A. On our periodic table corresponding to the alkali medal group. And lastly an example, E We have a 17 which we would find in group seven a. On the periodic table, which would correspond to being a halogen. And so to complete this example, all of these group names here would be our final answers for the given atoms in this question. So I hope that everything be reviewed was clear. If you have any questions, please leave them down below and I will see everyone in the next practice video
