Answer:
A chemical symbol is a shorthand method of representing an element. Instead of writing out the name of an element, we represent an element name with one or two letters.
Elements are arranged in the increasing order of atomic numbers. Elements in the modern periodic table are arranged in 7 periods and 18 groups. Horizontal rows are called periods and vertical columns are called groups.
