The magnitude of property X of five elements from the third period of the Periodic Table, P, Q, R, S and T is shown. P, Q, R, S and T have consecutive atomic numbers. The letters do not represent the symbols of the elements. [Figure showing a graph with 'X' on y-axis and 'atomic number' on x-axis, with points P, Q, R, S, T plotted]. Which row correctly identifies property X and element R?
