a)
Interpretation:
The electronic configuration of given element has to be derived using the (s, p, d, f) orbital box notation method and noble gas configuration methods.
Concept Introduction:
Electronic configuration: The electronic configuration is the distribution of electrons (e-) of an given molecule or respective atoms in atomic or molecular orbital’s.
Aufbau principle: This rule statues that ground state of an atom or ions electrons fill atomic orbitals of the lowest available energy levels before occupying higher levels. If consider the 1s shell is filled the 2s subshell is occupied.
Hund's Rule: The every orbital in a subshell is singly occupied with one electron before any one orbital is doubly occupied, and all electrons in singly occupied orbitals have the same spin.
Pauli exclusion rule: an atomic orbital may describe at most two electrons, each with opposite spin direction.
b)
Interpretation:
For each of these elements, the another element in the same periodic group has to be named.

The light atom used as a projectile has to be identified.

- How does Daltons atomic theory account for the Law of Conservation of Mass?arrow_forward2-102 An element consists of 90.51% of an isotope with a mass of 19.992 amu, 0.27% of an isotope with a mass of 20.994 amu, and 9.22% of an isotope with a mass of 21.990 amu. Calculate the average atomic mass and identify the element.arrow_forwardWhich of the following are isotopes of element X, the atomic number for which is 9: 919X, 920X, 189X, and 921X?arrow_forward
- What evidence led to the conclusion that cathode rays had a negative charge?arrow_forward2.84 Early attempts to arrange the elements often focused on atomic weight. Mendeleev considered a number of properties in addition to atomic weight, so he realized that some elements seemed out of place when ordered by atomic weight. Using the modern periodic table, identify elements for which Mendeleev must have had to switch the order in order to get the correct sequence of elements.arrow_forward2.42 What is a period in the periodic table?
