    Those elements of III period whose properties resemble with the elements of their sub group A and B are called bridge elements. For ex. Na is called bridge element since it links Group IA and Group IB. Mg is called bridge element since it links group IIA and IIB.

    Bridge elements are elements that belong to period 2 of the periodic table. Bridge elements have acquired the name because of a unique characteristic that the elements showcase in the group. They basically show resemblance in properties with elements of the next group i.e. elements of the third period. This close resemblance can be due to several physical factors such as comparable atomic radius, electronegativity, the polarization of atoms, etc. Bridge elements show a cross or a diagonal relationship with the 3rd-period elements in the periodic table. For example & Mg, Be & Al , B & Si. As we move diagonally, they tend to cancel each other out.
