Answer» a. `._(15)P=1s^(2)2s^(2)2p^(6)3s^(2)3p_(x)^(1)3p_(y)^(1)3p_(z)^(1)` Number of unpaired electron `=3` b. `._(14)Si=1s^(2)2s^(2)2p^(6)3s^(2)3p_(x)^(1)3p_(y)^(1)` Number of unpaired electron `=2` c. `._(24)Cr=1s^(2)2s^(2)2p^(6)3s^(2)3p^(6)3d^(5)4s^(1)` Number of unpaired electron `=6` d. `._(26)Fe=1s^(2)2s^(2)2p^(6)3s^(2)3p^(6)3d^(6)4s^(2)` Number of unpaired electron `=4("in" 3d).` e. `._(36)Kr=` Noble gas. All orbitals are filled. Unpaired electrons `=0`. |
