Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The condensed electron configurations and Lewis symbols to depict the formation of ions formed from atoms
Concept introduction:
The electronic configuration tells about the distribution of electrons in various atomic orbitals. The condensed electronic configuration is a way to write the electronic configuration where the inner shell configurations are compressed to the nearest noble gas configuration and only the valence shell configuration is written in the expanded form.
Lewis electron-dot symbol is a representation employed to donate the valence electron present in the atom. It includes atom symbol to represent inner electrons and nucleus and the dots represent the valence present in the atom.
(b)
Interpretation:
The condensed electron configurations, partial orbital diagrams, and Lewis symbols to depict the formation of ions formed from atoms
Concept introduction:
The electronic configuration tells about the distribution of electrons in various atomic orbitals. The condensed electronic configuration is a way to write the electronic configuration where the inner shell configurations are compressed to the nearest noble gas configuration and only the valence shell configuration is written in the expanded form.
The partial orbital diagram is a pictorial representation of the electrons present in an orbital. Each orbital can occupy only two electrons of opposite spin.
Lewis electron-dot symbol is a representation employed to donate the valence electron present in the atom. It includes atom symbol to represent inner electrons and nucleus and the dots represent the valence present in the atom.
