the number of electrons is 15 greater than Ar
... so the atomic number is also

I supposed the valence electron is 3 so it should be in the group 13 or 3A

Electrons feel an empty shell before they pair up with another electron; maybe that should help you figure out the correct group. You are close but not quite right.

If I look at the exact element it goes under group 5A. Then if I consider the valence electron it will be under group 3A. Im still confused.
