Name the element which has : i) two shells, both of which are completely filled with electrons ? ii) the electronic configuration \( 2,8,3 \) ? iii) a total of three shells with five electrons in its valence shell ? (iv) a total of four shells with two electrons in its valence shell ?(v) twice as many electrons in its second shell as in its first shell ? |

Answer» i) It has two shells, and both of which are completely filled with electrons. It means. n = 2 (n = number of shell) ∴ Electronic configuration of element will be 1s2 2s2 2p6 it is the electronic configuration of "Ne"(Ƶ = 10) 'Neon' ii) We have given, electronic configuration 2, 8, 3. It means number of shell in element are = 3 and total number of electrons are = 13 Therefor electronic configuration will be 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1 Ƶ = 10 The above electronic configuration correspond to the Aluminium element (Al) iii) There are total three shells, it means n = 3and valence shell has five electron. Therefore the electronic configuration will be 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p3 it is the electronic configuration of phosphorous element. iv) There are total four shells, it means, n = 41 and valence shell has two electrons. Therefore the electronic configuration will be 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 It is the electronic configuration of calcium (Ca) element v) There are twice electrons in the second shell as in the first shell. We know that, first shell accommodate only two electrons. Therefore four electrons are present in second shell. The electronic configuration of element will be 1s2 2s2 2p2 It is the electronic configuration of carbon (C) element |
