PERIOD-5 MEANS IT HAS 5 SHELLS.
GROUP 16 MEANS IT HAS 16 VALANCE ELECTRONS
THEREFORE, ATOMIC NUMBER OF THE ELEMENT IS 2+8+8+18+16=52
GROUP 16 MEANS IT HAS 16 VALANCE ELECTRONS
THEREFORE, ATOMIC NUMBER OF THE ELEMENT IS 2+8+8+18+16=52

Answer:
The element of group 16 and 5th period will have atomic mass = 52 ( Tellurium)
Explanation:
The element belongs to group 16th which means it will be having 6 electrons in its outermost shell or valence shell .
5th period indicates that the element will be having electrons in 5 shells
∴ The atomic number of the element will be = 2+ 8+ 18+ 18+ 6 = 52
