what is electronic configuration of 118
Answers
Electronic configuration may be defined as the arrangement on electrons into various energy levels or orbits.
First let us know about the name of this element i.e. the a element with atomic number 118.
Well, the element which has the atomic number 118 is Oganesson.
The electronic configuration, often abbreviated as E.C. of Oganesson is as follows:
2, 8, 18, 32, 32, 18, 8
NOTE: This element is not discovered yet and only a prediction is made for this element. Hence, the electronic configuration given may also change later as presently it is only predicted.
Oganesson is denoted by the symbol Og. It may be defined as a synthetic chemical element. It has the highest atomic number and highest atomic mass among all the elements discovered till now. At standard temperature and pressure, it is predicted to be in solid state. It is located in group 18 of period 7 of the modern periodic table. Formally, it was named on 28th of November, 2016. It is named after Yuri Oganessian who is a nuclear physicist. It also contains isotopes.
You see! It was not named formally just a few years back.
