I don’t have the periodic-table image or the element symbol, so I can’t choose for you. Could you upload the picture or say which square is highlighted (its symbol, atomic number, or its column/row)?
If you want to decide yourself, here are quick rules:
- Period number = the row the element is in (period 1 contains H and He).
- “Group 1A” (alkali metals) = first column, 1 valence electron.
- “Valence is 4” usually applies to main-group elements in group 14 (old label IV or IVA) such as C, Si (they typically form 4 bonds).
- “Group 4” (IUPAC group 4: Ti, Zr, Hf) is different from “valence 4” — group 4 metals don’t necessarily have 4 valence electrons formed in the same way as carbon.
Give the highlighted element or an image and I’ll pick the best statement.
