The electronic distribution of magnesium (Mg) is 2, 8, 2. The location of magnesium in the periodic table is?

میگنیشیم کی الیکٹرانک تقسیم 2 ، 8 ، 2 ہے۔ متواتر جدول میں میگنیشیم کا مقام ہے؟

Period= 3, Group= 2

Period= 4, Group= 3

Period = 3, Group = 1

None of these

Magnesium (Mg) electronic distribution = 2, 8, 2

The number of shells = 3 (so Period = 3)

The number of electrons in the outermost shell = 2 (so Group = 2)
