The noble gases, located at the end of each period, have electron configurations of the type ns2np6, where n represents the number of the outermost shell. Also, n is the number of the period in the periodic table in which the element is found. 

The element nitrogen is a nonmetal. It belongs to Group VA in the Periodic Table in the second period. Its electronic configuration is [He]25 2p. [He] means that the helium configuration is filled. The valence configuration represented by the 2,... 

The first four electrons of boron (B, Z = 5) fill 1j and 2s orbitals. The fifth electron goes to the next highest level, 2p, according to the periodic table. The configuration for boron is ls 2s 2p. Similarly, carbon (C, Z = 6) has a ls 2s 2p configuration. The next four elements increase the number of electrons in the three 2p orbitals until they are filled with six electrons for neon (Ne, Z = 10). All of these configurations appear in Figure 11.15. 

Note. The electronic configuratioa of any element can easily be obtained from the periodic table by adding up the numbers of electrons in the various quantum levels. We can express these in several ways, for example electronic configuration of nickel can be written as ls 2s 2p 3s 3d 4s. or more briefly ( neon core ) 3d 4s, or even more simply as 2. 8. 14. 2... 

The detailed electronic configurations for the elements atomic numbers 5 5-86 can be obtained from the periodic table and are shown below in Table 1.5. 

In the older form of the periodic table, chromium was placed in Group VI, and there are some similarities to the chemistry of this group (Chapter 10). The outer electron configuration, 3d 4s. indicates the stability of the half-filled d level. 3d 4s being more stable than the expected 3d 4s for the free atom. Like vanadium and titanium, chromium can lose all its outer electrons, giving chromium)VI) however, the latter is strongly oxidising and is...

Whether an element is the source of the cation or anion in an ionic bond depends on several factors for which the periodic table can serve as a guide In forming ionic compounds elements at the left of the periodic table typically lose electrons giving a cation that has the same electron configuration as the nearest noble gas Loss of an elec tron from sodium for example yields Na which has the same electron configuration as neon... 

Elements at the right of the periodic table tend to gam electrons to reach the elec tron configuration of the next higher noble gas Adding an electron to chlorine for exam pie gives the anion Cl which has the same closed shell electron configuration as the noble gas argon... 

Hafnium [7440-58-6] Hf, is in Group 4 (IVB) of the Periodic Table as are the lighter elements zirconium and titanium. Hafnium is a heavy gray-white metallic element never found free in nature. It is always found associated with the more plentiful zirconium. The two elements are almost identical in chemical behavior. This close similarity in chemical properties is related to the configuration of the valence electrons, and for zirconium and... 

Magnesium [7439-95-4] atomic number 12, is in Group 2 (IIA) of the Periodic Table between beryllium and calcium. It has an electronic configuration of 1T2T2 3T and a valence of two. The element occurs as three isotopes with mass numbers 24, 25, and 26 existing in the relative frequencies of 77, 11.5, and 11.1%, respectively. 

Ground-state electronic configuration is ls 2s 2p 3s 3p 3i 4s. Manganese compounds are known to exist in oxidation states ranging from —3 to +7 (Table 2). Both the lower and higher oxidation states are stabilized by complex formation. In its lower valence, manganese resembles its first row neighbors chromium and especially iron ia the Periodic Table. Commercially the most important valances are Mn, Mn ", or Mn ". ... 

Silver belongs to Group II (IB) of the Periodic Table. The metal has a outer electronic configuration. Silver has been shown to have three... 

Tellurium [13494-80-9] Te, at no. 52, at wt 127.61, is a member of the sixth main group. Group 16 (VIA) of the Periodic Table, located between selenium and polonium. Tellurium is in the fifth row of the Table, between antimony and iodine, and has an outer electron configuration of The four inner... 

Vanadium [7440-62-2] V, (at. no. 23, at. wt 50.942) is a member of Group 5 (VB) of the Periodic Table. It is a gray body-centered-cubic metal in the first transition series (electronic configuration When highly pure, it is very soft and dutile. Because of its high melting point, vanadium is referred to as a... 

Bromine [7726-95-6] Bi2, is the only nonmetallic element that is aUquid at standard conditions. Bromine [10097-32-2] Br, has at no. 35, at wt 79.904, and belongs to Group 17 (VIIA) of the Periodic Table, the halogens. Its electronic configuration is. The element s known isotopes... 

Referring to the periodic table as needed, write electron configurations for all the elements in the third period.
