Vedclass · Answer

(C) The position of an element in the periodic table is determined by its electronic configuration. $H$ (Hydrogen) has an atomic number of $1$ and an electronic configuration of $1s^1$. Due to its ability to lose one electron like alkali metals or gain one electron like halogens,it is often placed at the top of group $1$. $He$ (Helium) has an atomic number of $2$ and an electronic configuration of $1s^2$. Since its valence shell is completely filled (duplet),it exhibits properties of noble gases and is placed in group $18$.

List-$I$ (Atomic number)	List-$II$ (Group number and Period number)
