Question

how does the electronic configuration of an atom of an element relate to its position in themodern periodic table

Answer 1

To know its position in periodic table first we should know the electronic configuration of the element. Valence electrons: The electrons, which a represent in the outermost shell of an atom are called valence electrons. ... For any element the valence shell number is equal to its period number.

Hope it helps ^_^
