Elements on the Periodic Table are organized by increasing atomic number, which corresponds to the number of protons in an atom's nucleus. They are also grouped into rows called periods and columns called groups or families, where elements in the same group exhibit similar chemical properties. Additionally, the table is divided into categories such as metals, nonmetals, and metalloids, and it often highlights trends in electronegativity, ionization energy, and atomic radius.
