The correct title of this } is }}}. The initial letter is capitalized due to [Naming conventions #Lower case first lettertechnical restrictions].

The p-block of the periodic table of the elements consists of the last six groups minus helium (which is located in the s-block). In the elemental form of the p-block elements, the highest energy electron occupies a p-orbital. The p-block contains all of the nonmetals and semimetals, as well as some of the metals.

The groups of the p-block are:

• 13 (IIIB,IIIA): Boron Group
• 14 (IVB,IVA): Carbon Group
• 15 (VB,VA): Nitrogen Group
• 16 (VIB,VIA): Chalcogens
• 17 (VIIB,VIIA): Halogens
• 18 (Group 0): Noble gases
