Answer 2

The ground state term symbol for $\[{{d}^{5}}\]$ is

Explanation:

• Term symbol is used to describe the atomic state of an atom.
• The term symbol of an atom is represented as $\[^{2S+1}{{L}_{J}}\]$.
• Here 'S' stands for the total spin quantum number,'L'  stands for the total orbital quantum number and 'J' represents the  total angular momentum quantum number.
• For  $\[{{d}^{5}}\]$ ,the value of 'L' is equal to zero and 'S' is equal to $\[\frac{5}{2}\]$.

• Therefore the term symbol of  $\[{{d}^{5}}\]$  is $\[^{6}S\]$.
