To accurately answer the questions from Column A, we need specific information from the diagram mentioned to determine the characteristics of the atom being referenced. Since I can’t see the diagram, I can provide a general approach on how to match the questions with answers based on typical atomic structure.

However, if you can provide or describe the diagram (such as the atomic symbol, protons, neutrons, and electron configuration), I can help match each question to the appropriate answer.

Here is a general approach:

1. **How many energy levels does this atom have?**
- Count the number of electron shells (energy levels) based on the electron configuration.

2. **What is the mass number of this atom?**
- Add the number of protons and neutrons (mass number = protons + neutrons).

3. **What period of the periodic table is it in?**
- The period corresponds to the number of energy levels (the same as the answer to question 1).

4. **What group in the periodic table is this atom in?**
- The group can be determined by the number of valence electrons (found in the outermost energy level).

5. **What is the atomic number of this atom?**
- The atomic number is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom.

6. **How many valence electrons does this atom have?**
- Determine the number of electrons in the outermost energy level.
