c. Ar
d. Cl

Answer 1

Among these elements Nitrogen, Beryllium Argon ,Chlorine .
The element Magnesium resemble the element Beryllium (Be).

Reason / Explanation :- Magnesium lie in the second group (Alkali earth  metals) , Where in the same group elements Beryllium lies too. 
All the elements ( Including Mg & Be) of the Alkali Earth Metals have the same characteristics and they resembles each other in various physical and chemical properties., Such as :-

(i) All the metals of this group form the strong Alkali , which is mostly found in the earth crust. 
(ii) All the metals of this group, Reacts with the oxygen in the similar manner and form their respective colored oxides. 
(iii) All the metals have the same valency of two.
(iv) All the elements of this group are good reducing agent..

Note :- Carbon and Nitrogen are non- metals , They don't resemble magnesium in any manner.
Argon is a noble gas which also doesn't resemble with magnesium. 

Thus the only one who resemble with magnesium is Beryllium (Be), Hence option (b) is correct.



Hope it Helps.
