The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:

Use the periodic table to identify the name or atomic number for each element below. (Give the name, not the chemical symbol, for each element.)

hafnium: atomic number

atomic number 15

atomic number 45

osmium: atomic number

magnesium: atomic number

Answer:

hafnium: atomic number - 72

atomic number 15 - Phosphorus

atomic number 45 - Rhodium

osmium: atomic number - 76

magnesium: atomic number - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

A Periodic table is a tabular representation of elements or atoms arranged on the basis of their atomic number and atomic mass.

So according to the periodic table:

  • Hafnium is metal and atomic number of hafnium is 72 that lies in group 4 (IVb) of the periodic table.
  • Atomic number 15 in the periodic table represents Phosphorus with the symbol P.
  • Atomic number 45 in the periodic table represents Rhodium with symbol Rh.
  • Atomic number of osmium is 76 that lies in Group 8 (VIIIB) of the periodic table.
  • Atomic number of magnesium is 12 that lies in group 2 (II) of the periodic table.

Hence, the correct answer is:

hafnium: atomic number - 72

atomic number 15 - Phosphorus

atomic number 45 - Rhodium

osmium: atomic number - 76

magnesium: atomic number - 12
