The element, with atomic number 118, will be
Options
- Aalkali
- Bnoble gas
- Clanthanide
- Dtransition element
Correct answer
B. noble gas
Step-by-step solution
Electronic configuration of element with atomic number 118 will be [ Rn ] 5 f ¹⁴ 6 ~d ¹⁰7 ~s ² 7 p ⁶ . Since its elctronic configuration in the outer moot or bit (ns ² n p⁶ ) resemble with that of inert or noble gases, therefore it will be noble gas element.
