Question

Write the ground-state electron configuration for excited states.

Write the ground-state electron configuration for excited states. (Express your answer as a series of orbitals. For example, the electron configuration of Li would be entered as 1s-2s or [He12s1.) 1s22s22p63 ргэр 1s*2p 22nl 2 22621 2

Answer 1

So 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 2p^1 is excited state 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^1 is ground state. [NC] 3s^1 1s^2 2p^1 is excited state 1s^2 2s^1 is ground state [He] 2s^1 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 2s^1 3p^2 is excited state 1s^2 2s62 2p^6 3s^2 3p^1 is Ground state [Ne] 3s^2 3P^1 s-orbital: 2-electrons p-orbital: 6-electrons d-orbital: 10-electrons f-orbital: 14-electrons
