(i) The electronic configuration is 2,8. It means that the given element contains 2 electrons in K shell and 8 electrons in L shell. Thus the element contains 2 shells. Thus it belongs to the second period. Secondly, there are 8 electrons in the valence shell (completely filled) which is true for the 18th group. 

(ii) The electronic configuration is 2,5. It means that the given element contains two shells, thus the period is 2nd. Secondly, there are 5 electrons in the valence shell which is true for the 15th group.
