Question

What is the atomic number of the element, having maximum number of unpaired 3d electrons? To which group does it belong?

Answer 1

Answer:

The atomic number of the element having maximum number of unpaired 3p electrons (in ground state) is 3. The maximum number of unpaired 3p electrons is 3. Hence, the electronic configuration becomes 1s22s22p63s23p3.

Answer 2

• The atomic number of the element having maximum number of unpaired 3p electrons (in ground state) is 3. The maximum number of unpaired 3p electrons is 3. Hence, the electronic configuration becomes 1s22s22p63s23p3.
