Question
determine what elements are denoted by the following electron configurations:
- ( 1 s ^ { 2 } 2 s ^ { 2 } 2 p ^ { 6 } 3 s ^ { 2 } 3 p ^ { 4 } )
- ( 1 s ^ { 2 } 2 s ^ { 2 } 2 p ^ { 6 } 3 s ^ { 2 } 3 p ^ { 6 } 4 s ^ { 2 } 3 d ^ { 10 } 4 p ^ { 6 } 5 s ^ { 1 } )
- ( k r 5 s ^ { 2 } 4 d ^ { 10 } 5 p ^ { 3 } )
- ( x e 6 s ^ { 2 } 4 f ^ { 14 } 5 d ^ { 6 } )
- ( r n 7 s ^ { 2 } 5 f ^ { 11 } )
Brief Explanations
- For electron configuration \(1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{4}\), count the total electrons: \(2 + 2+6 + 2+4=16\). The element with atomic number \(16\) is sulfur (\(S\)).
- For \(1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{6}4s^{2}3d^{10}4p^{6}5s^{1}\), count electrons: \(2+2 + 6+2+6+2+10+6 + 1=39\). The element with atomic number \(39\) is yttrium (\(Y\)).
- For \([Kr]5s^{2}4d^{10}5p^{3}\), \(Kr\) has \(36\) electrons. Add \(2 + 10+3=15\). Total electrons \(36 + 15=51\). The element with atomic number \(51\) is antimony (\(Sb\)).
- For \([Xe]6s^{2}4f^{14}5d^{6}\), \(Xe\) has \(54\) electrons. Add \(2+14 + 6=22\). Total electrons \(54+22 = 76\). The element with atomic number \(76\) is osmium (\(Os\)).
- For \([Rn]7s^{2}5f^{11}\), \(Rn\) has \(86\) electrons. Add \(2+11 = 13\). Total electrons \(86+13=99\). The element with atomic number \(99\) is einsteinium (\(Es\)).
