The following box is one of the 118 elements that exist on Earth and are organized into the Periodic Table of elements. Correctly identify each type of information in the box by dragging/dropping the correct term. Some of the boxes will contain more than one answer. (1 point) Drop target 1 Drop target 2 Drop target 3 Drop target 4 Question 2 Complete the paragraph below by choosing the correct term from the drop down menu as you complete the information about the Periodic Table of Elements. (1 point) The circled column labeled with "1" is called a . There are groups/families on the Periodic Table of Elements. Elements in the same group on the Periodic Table are similar because they have the same number of . This also means they have similar . The circled row labeled "2" is called a . There are periods on the table. Elements in the same period are similar because that have the same number of or electron shells. Question 3 Use the periodic table of elements to determine which of the options below show the two MOST similar elements according to their placement in the table.

Let's address each question step-by-step:

**Question 1: Identify each type of information in the box.**

1. Drop target 1: **Element Symbol** (e.g., H for Hydrogen, O for Oxygen)
2. Drop target 2: **Element Name** (the full name of the element, e.g., Hydrogen, Oxygen)
3. Drop target 3: **Atomic Number** (the number that represents the element's position in the periodic table)
4. Drop target 4: **Atomic Mass** (the average mass of the atom, usually found under the element symbol)

(Note: The specific answers may depend on the content of the box in your original prompt.)

**Question 2: Complete the paragraph.**

The circled column labeled with "1" is called a **group**. There are groups/families on the Periodic Table of Elements. Elements in the same group on the Periodic Table are similar because they have the same number of **valence electrons**. This also means they have similar **chemical properties**. The circled row labeled "2" is called a **period**. There are periods on the table. Elements in the same period are similar because they have the same number of **energy levels** or electron shells.

**Question 3: Determine the two MOST similar elements according to their placement in the table.**

The two MOST similar elements based on their placement in the periodic table would be:

**Li (Lithium) & Be (Beryllium)**

They are in the same group (alkali metals for Lithium and alkaline earth metals for Beryllium) and close together, which means they have similar properties.

If you have further options or a specific periodic table to analyze, let me know!
