In the ground state, an element has 13 electrons in M shell. The element is
Options
- Acopper
- Bchromium
- Cnickel
- Diron
Correct answer
B. chromium
Step-by-step solution
M shell =3 rd shell Electronic configuration =1 s^2, 2 s^2, 2 p^6, 3 s^2, 4 s^1, 3 d^5 Number of e⁻ in 3rd shell =3 s^2, 3 p^6, 3 d^5=2+6+5=13 Total e⁻=24 So, the element is Cr .
