Ann Scott · Answer 2

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Elements which lie in the same column are most closely associated with each other because they show similar chemical properties.

It is known that chemical properties depend on the number of valence electrons and elements of the same column have same valency.

That is why, elements of same column show similar chemical properties.
