Question

write the atomic number and electron configuration of carbon​

Answer 1

Answer:

Carbon is the sixth element with a total of 6 electrons. In writing the electron configuration for carbon the first two electrons will go in the 1s orbital. ... The remaining two electrons will go in the 2p orbital. Therefore the C electron configuration will be 1s22s22p2.
