**Periodic Table Description:**
The image contains a periodic table of elements. The groups (vertical columns) are labeled at the top from 1A to 8A and 1B to 8B. The periods (horizontal rows) are numbered from 1 to 7 on the left. Elements are arranged by increasing atomic number, from hydrogen (H) in the top left corner to the heavier elements towards the bottom right.
**Question:**
Choose the BEST statement from the options below.
**Options:**
- **A.** Magnesium (Mg) and chlorine (Cl) are in the same GROUP and, so, will have very DIFFERENT physical and chemical properties.
- **B.** Magnesium (Mg) and chlorine (Cl) are in the same PERIOD, and, so, will have very DIFFERENT physical and chemical properties.
- **C.** Magnesium (Mg) and chlorine (Cl) are in the same GROUP and, so, share SIMILAR physical and chemical properties.
- **D.** Magnesium (Mg) and chlorine (Cl) are in the same PERIOD and, so, share SIMILAR physical and chemical properties.
