Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.3P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The ground-state electron configuration of the nitrogen atom is to be written. Valence electrons and core electrons in nitrogen are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The arrangement of electrons in atomic orbitals is called the atom’s ‘electron configuration’. The most stable electron configuration of an element is called the ‘ground state’ configuration. Valence electrons are the electrons occupying the highest energy shell while core electrons are the electrons occupying the remaining lower energy shells of an atom.

- Type in electron configurations for the following atoms and ions. Use the noble gas shortcut. The answer boxes don't support special formatting like superscripts, so I've programmed the answers as follows. As an example, the electron config for carbon would usually be: [He]2s°2p? But the ansvwer box can't hold superscripts, so type it in with spaces between each orbital and the next, like so: [He] 2s2 2p2 Can -- what you - - A ATA typed and what Ti (Ar] 3d2 4s2 Co [Ar] 3d7 4s2 Y2+ [Kr] 4d1 Bi3+ [Xe]6s2 4f14 5d10arrow_forwardShown below are three valence-shell electron diagrams showing electron configurations and spin directions represented by arrows.
