Oxygen, selenium, sulphur, tellurium & polonium constitute the group 16 of the periodic table of elements. The 1st 4 elements are collectively known as CHALCOGENS.


In our next blog we shall learn about chemical reaction calculator I hope the above explanation was useful.Keep reading and leave your comments.
