Question
Chalcogens are
- Group 15 elements
- Group 16 elements
- Group 17 elements
- Group 18 elements
Hint:
Group 16 is called chalcogens.
The correct answer is: Group 16 elements
The chalcogens are the elements that belong to group 16 of the modern periodic table. The term "chalcogens" was derived from the Greek word chalcos, meaning "ore formers," since they all are be found in copper ores. Chalcogens consists of five elements - oxygen, sulfur, selenium, tellurium, and polonium. This is also called oxygen family.
