Group of elements whose ending e-configuration is p2. 4 electrons in outer shell. Made up of a nonmetal, metalloids and metals.
A
Boron group
B
Nitrogen group
C
Carbon group
D
Oxygen group
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -All of the elements in group 16, beginning with oxygen, end with “p4”. The transition elements are called “d block” elements and always end with 1 or more “d electrons”.

Detailed explanation-2: -In group 4A or 14, all elements end in p2.

Detailed explanation-3: -Carbon ( Cstart text, C, end text), as a group 14 element, has four electrons in its outer shell. Carbon typically shares electrons to achieve a complete valence shell, forming bonds with multiple other atoms.

Detailed explanation-4: -Group 14 elements have four valence electrons and they include Carbon (C), Silicon (Si), Germanium (Ge), Tin (Sn), Lead (Pb), and Flerovium (Fl) .
