No. Magnesium is in the second period and potassium is in the third.


What is the chemical formula potassium and bromine?

Groups go in columns (up and down) and periods go in rows (left to right). Potassium is on the same row as bromine, therefore they are in the same period.


Does each element have the same physical properties as other elements?

It depends. If the elements are in the same period or column, then there properties could be very similar. The number of protons is what determines the element. because no element has the same number of protons, no two elements have the exact same properties. For example, because Sodium (Na) and potassium (K) are in the same period, they are both metals, they both have one valence electron and both explode when they are put in water. The difference between these 2 is Potassium has a larger explosion because Potassium is more of a concentrate. The point is, two elements can be very similar, but no two elements are exactly the same.

What are to two element that have properties similar to those of the element sodium?

Lithium and potassium has same properties as sodium.They are alkali metals.They are placed in group-1.The elements of the same group have same chemical properties. Li and K are the elements above and below Na in the period. So they have same properties as sodium.

Which elements have the same electron arrangement as Argon Chlorine Sulfur or Potassium?

No element has the exact same election arrangement as another element. However ion can have the same election arrangement as another element. For example Chloride (Cl-) has the same configuration as Argon, and Potassium (I) (K+) also has the same configuration as argon.


What element has the largest atoms period 4?

Atomic radius decreases across a row (increasing positive charge in the nucleus causes electrons in the same energy level to "shrink" into the nucleus due to electrostatic attraction). This means that potassium has the largest atomic radius in period 4.
