write the distribution of electrons in oxygen and argon
Answers
Explanation:
Nitrogen is the seventh element with a total of 7 electrons. In writing the electron configuration for nitrogen the first two electrons will go in the 1s orbital. ... The remaining three electrons will go in the 2p orbital. Therefore the N electron configuration will be 1s22s22p3.
Answer:
Explanation:
According to the periodic table, you can see that Oxygen has 8 electrons. Based on the order of fill above, these 8 electrons would fill in the following order 1s, 2s and then 2p. So Oxygen's electron configuration would be O 1s22s22p4.
Argon has 18 electrons. The maximum number of electrons accommodated in K shell is 2. The second orbit will fill up to 8 electrons. The third orbit can fill up to 18 electrons and it will accommodate left electrons of the element.
