Question

element X with atomic number 16 it will accept or donate electrons what is distribution of electrons

Answer 1

2 in k
8 in L
6in M
it will accept 2 electron to attain stability

Answer 2

The element with atomic number 16 is Sulphur
It's oxidation number is +6 or -2
It's electronic configuration will be
$1 {s}^{2} 2 {s}^{2} 2 {p}^{6} 3 {s}^{2} 3 {p}^{4}$
So, it will have 2 electrons in K shell
8 electrons in L shell i. e. 2 in s orbital 6 in p orbital
6 electrons in M shell i.e. 2 in s orbital 4 in p orbital
