Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The ground state (or) the excited state electronic configuration of the given configuration has to be found.
Concept Introduction:
Ground state configurations:
Atoms may occupy different energy states. The energy states are distinct, they occur at specific values only. Therefore an atom can only move to new energy levels if it absorbs or emits light an amount of energy that exactly corresponds to the difference between two energy levels. The lowest possible energy that the atom can occupy is called the ground state. The arrangement of electrons in the lowest possible energy state is ground state electronic configuration.
Excited state configuration:
An excited state is an energy level of atom in which electron is at a higher energy level than its ground state.
