Answer:
To find the period in which the element belongs, we must write down the electronic configuration of the element
Electronic configuration of 23 :
2,8,8,5
There are 4 shells, so it belongs to period 4 (Period number indicates Number of shells of an atom)
The valence number of electrons indicates the group to which the element belongs.
Here, the number of valence electrons is 5 so it belongs to group 5
Group 5
Period 4
So it's a transition element
