Because the s-orbital holds only two electrons, the s-block has groups numbering:

ATen
BTwo
CFour
DSix
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Two
1. Each group adds one electron to the outer s-orbital. 2. That orbital is full after two. 3. So groups 1 and 2 make up the s-block. _Source: syllabus Chemistry Part II, Unit 10, The s-Block Elements._
