If we know the symbol, let's say Mn, we may then open any periodic table and search for Manganese. Any decent periodic table should have the group numbers when you scroll up starting from the element you found.
In the case of Manganese the group number is 7. There is a lot of cool stuff about Manganese that people simply don't know. Why not stick around for a bit?

Most abundant ores are pyrolusite (MnO2), psilomelane [(Ba,H2O)2Mn5O10] and rhodochrosite (MnCO3). Pure metal produced by mixing MnO2 with powered Al and ignited in a furnace.Uses
Used in steel, batteries and ceramics. The steel in railroad tracks can contain as much as 1.2% manganese. It is crucial to the effectiveness of vitamin B1.Want to learn more details and data about Manganese (Mn)? Check my Elements Comprehensive List.
