Name the given element.​

For a given element, the number of postively charged, massive nuclear particles, the number of protons, is fixed. ... Because the number of protons determines Z , the atomic number, which determines the identity of the atom. The nucleus can also contains neutrons, massive, neutrally charged nuclear particles.

Explanation:

since the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus, as we move to the left on the periodic table, the electrostatic pull between the nucleus and the valence electron shell decreases. as we move down a group (vertical column), the valence shell energy level gets further and further from the nucleus.
