Metal Lithium Silver Zirconium Potassium Vanadium Tungsten Nonmetal Krypton Sulfur Selenium Metalloid Silicon Antimony Arsenic Parts of the Periodic Table There are 18 columns of elements on the periodic table, and they are called groups. There are 7 rows of elements on the periodic table, and they are called periods. Elements are grouped based on their characteristics. For example, the noble gases are the type of non-metals found in group 18, the alkaline earth metals are found in group 2, the transition metals are found in groups 3-12, and the halogens are the non-metals found in group 17.
