In the grand state, an element has 13 electrons in its M-shell. The element isA. ManganeseB. ChromiumC. NickelD. Iron

Answer» Correct Answer - A::B
`13e^(-)` in M (3rd) shell means `3s^(2) 3p^(6) 3d^(5)`. Hence complete configuration will be
`1s^(2) 2s^(2) 2p^(6) 3s^(2) 3p^(6) 3d^(5) 4s^(1) or 1s^(2) 2s^(2) 2p^(6) 3s^(2) 3p^(6) 3d^(5) 4s^(2)`
Hence, the element is chromium (Z = 24) or manganes (Z = 25)
