why are the elements placed into groups/families?

The vertical columns on the periodic table are called groups or families because of their similar chemical behavior. All the members of a family of elements have the same number of valence electrons and similar chemical properties. The horizontal rows on the periodic table are called periods.

Step-by-step explanation:

c

step-by-step explanation:

it isn't d, because the interquartile range is from 27-57. and the interquartile range is basically half the data, it's pretty obvious.

it isn't b, because like i said earlier, the interquartile range is from 27-57. 57-27 is 30. the real range has to be longer

not a either. although it looks like it, 3/4 of the data is not greater than 27. but if c is wrong than this should be correct

the correct answer is c, because 13 is the point in which the plot starts
