The false statement is: "Sodium (Na) has similar characteristics to Sulfur (S)."
Reason: Na is an alkali metal (group 1) and a metal, while S is a nonmetal (a chalcogen, group 16). They have very different chemical properties (Na forms cations and metals bonds; S typically forms anions and covalent bonds). The other three statements are true.
