Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The electron configuration of tin using noble-gas notation needs to be represented. Its electron- dot structure for a ground state atom of Tin needs to be determined.
Concept introduction: Electronic configurationrepresents the arrangement of electrons in orbitals around the nucleus
Answer to Problem 93A
The ground state electron configuration is
Electron Dot structure of Tin
Explanation of Solution
The noble gas used to summarize the electron configuration of an element and provide relevant information about the valence electrons of that element.
The noble gas orbital notation of the element uses the electron configuration of the noblegas that is present nearbefore the given element in the periodic table.
Tin element has
The ground state electron configuration is
The ground state electron configuration is
