Which elements are most likely to react in the same manner in a chemical reaction?

A pair of elements in the same group are more likely to have similar properties. This is why groups are also called families. In the main group elements, groups 1,2, 13-18, the elements in a group have the same numbers of valence electrons in their outermost energy levels. This accounts for the fact that they behave in a similar matter in chemical reactions.

What other elements have similar properties to carbon?

Elements in Group 14 on the Periodic Table have similar properties to carbon. These elements are carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), lead (Pb), and flerovium (Fl). Each of these elements has two electrons in the outermost p orbital, the electron configuration ns2np2, and they tend to adopt oxidation sates of +4 (+2 for the heavier elements due to the inert pair effect). Silicon is most similar to carbon.
