Question

The proton number of elements J and K are 13 and 16 respectively.
a. Draw the orbital diagram for valence electrons of each elements.
b. Suggest the most stable ions for J and K. Write their respective spdf electronic configurations.

Answer 1

Answer:

J shell= 13 proton

since proton = electron so it should have 13 electrons in its outermost shell

so its config. is

1s²,2s²,2p⁶,3s²,3p¹

K shell=16 proton=16 electrons

so, its configu. is

1s²,2s²,2p⁶,3s²,3p⁴
