Write the electronic configurations of two elements P (atomic number 17) and Q (atomic number 19) and determine their group numbers and period numbers in the Modern Periodic Table.
(a) Na (Z = 11) has outermost electronic Configuration = 3s1
(b) N (Z = 7) has outermost electronic Configuration = 2p3
(c) Fe (Z = 26) has outermost electronic Configuration =...
(a) The number of electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom is known as valence electrons. For e.g.,
the electronic configuration of Na (11) is ...
The elements in the first-half of the transition series exhibit many oxidation states with Mn
