Read each description in the first column of the table below. If any chemical element with an atomic number of 92 or less matches the description, check "Yes" and enter the chemical symbol of an element that matches. Otherwise, check "No" in the second column.

\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|}
\hline
Description & Does any element with [tex]$Z \leq 92$[/tex] match the description? & If you checked Yes, give the symbol of an element with [tex]$Z \leq 92$[/tex] that matches. \\
\hline
An element in Period 2 and Group 3A. & Yes [tex]$\square$[/tex] & No [tex]$\square$[/tex] \\
\hline
A metalloid in Group 5A. & Yes [tex]$\square$[/tex] & No [tex]$\square$[/tex] \\
\hline
An alkaline earth metal with a lower atomic number than tellurium. & Yes [tex]$\square$[/tex] & No [tex]$\square$[/tex] \\
\hline
A main-group element in Period 2. & Yes [tex]$\square$[/tex] & No [tex]$\square$[/tex] \\
\hline
\end{tabular}



Answer :

Let's fill in the table step-by-step based on the given answer:

1. An element in Period 2 and Group 3A:
- Matches: Yes
- Element: Boron (B)

2. A metalloid in Group 5A:
- Matches: Yes
- Element: Arsenic (As)

3. An alkaline earth metal with a lower atomic number than tellurium:
- Matches: Yes
- Element: Calcium (Ca)

4. A main-group element in Period 2:
- Matches: Yes
- Elements: Lithium (Li), Beryllium (Be), Boron (B), Carbon (C), Nitrogen (N), Oxygen (O), Fluorine (F), Neon (Ne)

Given these details, here's the complete table:

\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|}
\hline
description & \begin{tabular}{l}
Does any \\
element with Z [tex]$\leq$[/tex] 92 match \\
the description?
\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{l}
If you checked yes, give the symbol of an \\
element with [tex]$Z \leq 92$[/tex] that matches.
\end{tabular} \\
\hline
An element in Period 2 and Group 3A & Yes & B \\
\hline
A metalloid in Group 5A & Yes & As \\
\hline
\begin{tabular}{l}
An alkaline earth metal with a lower \\
atomic number than tellurium.
\end{tabular} & Yes & Ca \\
\hline
A main-group element in Period 2 & Yes & \begin{tabular}{l} Li, Be, B, C, N, O, \\ F, Ne \end{tabular} \\
