To Choose: The correct option.
Answer to Problem 26R
Option B: Argon
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Argon and neon both are from the same family in periodic table.
Both helium and neon belongto noble gas family. These are chemically stable elements because they have completevalence shell. They have complete octants with the electronic configuration
For Neon electronic configuration is
For argon electronic configuration is
