Answer:
Explanation:Elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells; moving across a period (so progressing from group to group),elements gain electrons and protons and become less metallic. This arrangement reflects the periodic recurrence of similar properties as the atomic number increases

They exhibit similar chemical properties. Elements within the same period have different number of electrons in their valence shells (the number is increasing from left to right) and different valence shell electron configuration. Therefore, elements in the same period are chemically different.
