[Ar]4s²3d¹⁰4p⁴

We see that the last level is this element is 4, so this element should be in

4th period, it has 4 p-electrons, so it should be in 16th group.

4th period, 16th group - it is Se.

You can also go to the next element after Ar, and count beginning of this element 16. (2+10+4 = 16 electrons)

From "K" (where K is the first) you count to 16 and it is going to be Se.
