Periods are determined by number of orbitals (outer rings) found in an atomic model

Groups are determined by number of electrons found in the outer orbital of an atomic model

Name of the element can either be determined by looking at the number of protons which is the

atomic number of the element OR using the period and group to locate it on the periodic table
