Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The group number for the elements having $4s^{2}3d^{10}4p^5$ outer electron configuration should be written using both A/B and 1 to 18 notations.

Concept Introduction:

Periodic Table contains periods and groups. There are 18 groups and 7 periods in the periodic table. The vertical columns are known as groups and horizontal rows are known as periods. The numbering of periods is done as 1 to 7 from top to bottom and groups are named as 1A, 2A, 3B to 8B, 1B, 2B, 3A to 8A from left to right where A represents representative elements and B represents transition elements.

In periodic table, different blocks within the periodic table correspond to the s, p, d and f sublevels. Thus, on the basis of increasing atomic number in the periodic table, electronic configuration of atoms can be written.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The group number for the elements having $4s^1$ outer electron configuration should be written using both A/B and 1 to 18 notations.
