Which element is represented by the electron configuration in example B? Example B: 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p2

Respuesta :

Answer is:  germanium is represented by the electron configuration in example B.

Electron configuration of an element: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p².

According to electron configuration, this element has 32 electrons.

Element with 32 electrons and 32 protons (atomic number 32) is germanium.

Germanium (symbol: Ge) is a lustrous, hard, grayish-white metalloid in the carbon group.

The element that can be represented with the given electron configuration [.1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p².] is Germanium

  • The electronic configuration of an element can be regarded as a symbolic notation which represent the ways electron of that particular atoms are distributed at  atomic orbitals.

  • In this configuration, energy level as well as the type of orbital are first written then the number of electrons.

  • The given configuration belongs to the elements belongs to germanium which has 32 electron and this 32 electron is used for the atomic configuration and an atomic number of 32.

Therefore, germanium has the electron configuration of [..1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p².
