 The properties of elements of a sub-group                 table are better predicted by their atomic

                                 Long Form of Periodic Table
 This periodic table is based on the electronic configuration of elements.
 There are 118 elements have been identified.
 A block of the periodic table of elements is a set of adjacent groups.
 The respective highest-energy electrons in each element in a block belong to the same atomic
  orbital type. Each block is named after its characteristic orbital; thus, the blocks are: s-block, p-
  block, d-block and f-block
