WRITE THE SYMBOL AND ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATION OF THE FOLLOWING ELEMENTS
1. Chlorine
2. Manganese
3. Gold
4. Silver
5. Argon
Answer (1)
Answer:Here are the symbols and electronic configurations of the elements you requested. Note that there are different ways to represent electronic configurations, and I'll use a common, concise notation: 1. Chlorine:Symbol: ClElectronic Configuration: [Ne] 3s²3p⁵ (or 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁵) 2. Manganese:Symbol: MnElectronic Configuration: [Ar] 3d⁵4s² (or 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d⁵4s²) 3. Gold:Symbol: AuElectronic Configuration: [Xe] 4f¹⁴5d¹⁰6s¹ (or 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶5s²4d¹⁰5p⁶6s¹4f¹⁴5d¹⁰) 4. Silver:Symbol: AgElectronic Configuration: [Kr] 4d¹⁰5s¹ (or 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p⁶5s¹4d¹⁰) 5. Argon:Symbol: ArElectronic Configuration: [Ne] 3s²3p⁶ (or 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶) The notation [Ne], [Ar], and [Kr] represents the electronic configuration of the noble gases neon, argon, and krypton, respectively. This is a shorthand way of writing the configuration, as the inner shells are the same as those noble gases. The full configuration is also shown in parentheses.
