The electronic configuration 1 s^2 2 s^2 2 p^5 3 s^1 shows
The electronic configuration shows
Options
- Aground state of fluorine atom
- Bexcited state of fluorine atom
- Cexcited state of neon atom
- Dexcited state of ion
Correct answer
C. excited state of neon atom
Step-by-step solution
The ground state electronic configuration of neon atom is :
1 s², 2 s², 2 p⁶
Therefore first excited state of Neon will be :
1 s², 2 s², 2 p⁵, 3 s¹
