View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Period =3rd,=3^{\text {rd}}, block =p,= p, group =16=16
Option A (Period = 3rd, block = p, group = 16) is correct because the highest principal quantum number is 3 (period 3), the last electron enters the p-orbital (p-block), and the number of valence electrons is 6 (group 16).
