    Answer:

    Period 4

    Explanation:

    Given the electronic configuration of the element;

    = Is²  2s²  2p⁶  3s²  3p⁶  3d¹⁰   4s²    4p¹

    The period of the element is determined by the highest coefficient in the electronic configuration.

    For this given configuration (Is²  2s²  2p⁶  3s²  3p⁶  3d¹⁰   4s²    4p¹), “4” is the highest coefficient and the element will certainly belong to period 4 in the periodic table.

    To test if the prediction is correct:

    Total number of electrons in the given element = 2+2+6+2+6+10+2+1 = 31

    The element with atomic number of 31 = Gallium (Ga). (This element belong to period 4).
