Question
Chapter 12, Problem 126CP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The electron configurations for the most stable ion that is formed by the given atoms are to be stated.
Concept Introduction:
The distribution of the electrons that exists in the atomic orbital of an atom is collectively known as electron configuration. The description of every electron that is moving freely in an orbital is given by the electron configuration of that atom.
An ion that is formed by losing an electron from a neutral atom is known as cation. An ion that is formed by gaining an electron to a neutral atom is known as anion.
