(a)
Interpretation:
The electronic configuration for all the electrons and electronic configuration for valence electrons of the element oxygen is to be stated.
Concept Introduction:
The electrons revolve in fixed energy levels around the nucleus. These energy levels are shell. The orientation of electrons in this shell is given by the sub shells notation. The region, where the probability of finding the electron in space is high is known as orbital.
(b)
Interpretation:
The electronic configuration for all the electrons and electronic configuration for valence electrons of the element sodium is to be stated.
Concept Introduction:
The electrons revolve in fixed energy levels around the nucleus. These energy levels are shell. The orientation of electrons in this shell is given by the sub shells notation. The region, where the probability of finding the electron in space is high, is known as orbital.
(c)
Interpretation:
The electronic configuration for all the electrons and electronic configuration for valence electrons of the element phosphorus is to be stated.
Concept Introduction:
The electrons revolve in fixed energy levels around the nucleus. These energy levels are shell. The orientation of electrons in this shell is given by the sub shells notation. The region where the probability of finding the electron in space is high is known as orbital.

- The brilliance with which magnesium burns makes it ideal for use in marine flares and fireworks. Compare the mass of magnesium that burns with the mass of magnesium in the magnesium oxide ash that forms. Explain this in terms of atomic theory. The white light in fireworks can result from burning magnesium.arrow_forwardGroup the following elements into three similar groups of two each: Na, O, Ne, Li, Ar, Sarrow_forwardThe negative charged particle found within the atom is the a. proton. b. electron. c. nucleus. d. neutron.arrow_forward
