Answer

K and Na F and Cl P and N

Work Step by Step

K (potassium) and Na (sodium) are in the same column on the periodic table, group 1A (the alkali metals), so we can assume that their chemical properties will be similar. F (fluorine) and Cl (chlorine) are in the same column on the periodic table, group 7A (the halogens), so we can assume that their chemical properties will be similar. P (phosphorus) and N (nitrogen) are in the same column on the periodic table, group 5A, so we can assume that their chemical properties will be similar.
