Explanation:
Elements in the same group (column) of the periodic table have the same number of outer shell (valence) electrons, represented by the group number; the number of electron shells increases down the group. Elements in the same row (period) have the same number of electron shells (or principal quantum number), equal to the period number; the number of valence electrons increases across the period. This question is moderately difficult as the student must recall multiple pieces of information and correctly interpret a schematic illustration of the periodic table.
