Solution
The given sentence is wrong.
Explanation:
- Lithium and beryllium are in the same period because they have the same number of electron shells (they are both in period 2), not because their valencies are similar.
- Valency depends on the number of electrons in the outermost shell; Li has valency 1 while Be has valency 2, so their valencies are different.
