  Group 6 element - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Group 6 element is the series of elements in group 6 (IUPAC style) in the periodic table, which consists of the transition metals chromium (Cr), molybdenum (Mo), tungsten (W), and seaborgium (Sg).
"Group 6" is the new IUPAC name for this group, the old style name was "group VIA" in the old European system or "group VIB" in the old US system.
Group 6 must not be confused with the group with the old-style group names of either VIB (European system) or VIA (US system) which is now group 16.

 Atomic orbital - Wikipedia
The chemistry of the main group elements is dominated primarily by the electronic configuration in just the s and p orbitals; that of the transition metals by the electronic configuration of electrons in the d orbitals; and that of the lanthanides and actinides by the electronic configuration of electrons in the f orbitals.
Progressing through a group from lightest element to heaviest element, the outer-shell electrons (those most readily accessible for participation in chemical reactions) are all in the same type of orbital, with a similar shape, but with increasingly higher energy and average distance from the nucleus.
In francium, the heaviest element of the group, the outer-shell electron is in the seventh-shell orbital, significantly further out on average from the nucleus than those electrons filling all the shells below it in energy.

 Atoms&Ions: Chapter Explanation - Chemical Bonding
In fact, the number of valence electrons of an element is related to its position in the periodic table - it is equal to the unit digit of the column of a main-group element.
It is also important to mention that the valence of an element indicates the number of electrons involved in bonding to acheive the electron configuration of the closest inert gas.
Elements at the left and in the center of the periodic table are metals, which lose electrons easily.

 CMS—About the Heavy Elements Group   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The objective of this research is to study the solution chemistry of the transactinide elements and the similar transition metals and main-group element chemical homologs.
Trends in the chemical properties among the members of a particular chemical group are affected by subtle changes in the ionization potentials of the valence electrons, caused by the increased importance of relativistic effects induced by the high nuclear charges.
At present, we are focusing on the chemical properties of the elements in groups 4a, 2b, and 8, prompted by our recent discovery of an element-114 isotope with a 30-second lifetime; only a single atom was produced in a month-long experiment.

The covalent element hydrogen bonds that are found in molecular hydrides are usually polarized (important exception: hydrocarbons) with the hydrogen bearing a positive partial charge and the bonding partner bearing a negative partial charge (a).
The elements in the periodic table can largely be grouped into nonmetals (to the left of the periodic table), metals (to the right of the periodic table) and a group of elements that are borderline cases and are called "metalloids" (B, Si, Ge, P, As, Se)
Moreover, the calculated mass of element 43 shown in their spectrum is consistent with the amount that would be now expected from the spontaneous fission of U present in the ores they studied.

 Main group element - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In chemistry and atomic physics, main group elements are groups whose lightest members are represented by hydrogen, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, and helium as arranged in the periodic table of the elements.
The main group elements (with some of the lighter transition metals) are the most abundant elements on the earth, in the solar system, and in the universe.
