All atoms have a group name assigned, even Thallium. Ok but how do we know what is the group name for an atom of Tl?
If we know the symbol, let's say Tl, we may then open any periodic table and search for Thallium. Any decent periodic table should have the group numbers when you scroll up starting from the element you found.
In the case of Thallium the group number is 13. There is a lot of cool stuff about Thallium that people simply don't know. Why not stick around for a bit?

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.
To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:
