Chapter 6, Problem 45A
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The electronic configuration having the greatest stability needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Electronic configuration of an element is the arrangement of elements in different orbitals like s, p, d, f etc. The filing of the electrons in the orbitals follows the Aufbau Principle.

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 45A

Noble gases has electronic configuration with the greatest stability.

Explanation of Solution

The elements from group 18 are noble gases. They have stable electronic configurations.

For example, helium has outer electronic configuration of 2s2. Thus, it has complete duet. Other noble gases have complete octets. The elements from these groups have fulfilled valence orbitals.

Conclusion

Thus, noble gases has electronic configuration with the greatest stability.
