Does beryllium (Be) or Sodium (Na) have the same electron arrangement as Magnesium (Mg)? Why?

Na has the most similar configuration. Na electron configuration: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s¹ or [Ne] 3s₁. Mg electron configuration: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s² or [Ne] 3s². Be electron configuration: 1s²2s² or [He] 2s². Na and Mg are right next to each other in the same period

definition

                    entropy is a measure of the randomness or the extent of disorder of a chemical process.

                      enthalpy is a measure of the heat change of a reaction occurring at a constant pressure.

measurement units:

                        entropy is measured in joule per kelvin (jk⁻¹)   whereas enthalpy is measured in joule per mole (jmol⁻¹)

requirements:

                            entropy has no requirements or limits, and its change is measured by the division between the heat change of the chemical process and the temperature.

                              in contrast, enthalpy can only be related to the heat change of the reaction under standard conditions.
