The elements in groups 1 and 2 and helium in group 18 of the periodic table are known as s-block elements. Apart from hydrogen and helium all the elements of s-block are metals.
The groups 1A and 2A elements on the left side of the table are called the s-block elements because they result from the filling of an s orbital. 1  The elements of the periodic table in which the last electron enters in s-orbital are called s-block elements. 2  S-orbital can accommodate a maximum of two electrons.
