The configuration $\left[Ar\right]3d^{10}4s^{2}4p^4$ is similar to that of :

An element M's electron configuration is $\left[Ar\right]3d^{10}4s^{2}4p^4$. The outer electronic configuration of the element M in the given configuration is $4{\mathrm{s}}^{2}4{\mathrm{p}}^4$. which has the form of ${\mathrm{ns}}^{2}n{\mathrm{p}}^4$which is the typical outer electronic configuration of the VB group (group 16). Therefore, the group VB includes the element M. Sulphar is a member of group 16 here.
