Question
1. How do the electronic configurations of the elements with $Z =107-109$ differ from one another?
2. $Rn ( Z =86)$ is the last noble gas discovered. Predict what will be the atomic number of the next noble gas to be discovered. Write its symbol.

Answer

1.
Atomic Number of element (Z)Electronic configurationNumber of electrons in 6d orbitalGroup Number
107$\begin{gathered}{[R n] 5 s^{14} 6 d^5} 7 s^2\end{gathered}$57
108$\begin{gathered}{[ Rn ] 5 s^{14} 6 d^6} 7 s^2\end{gathered}$68
109$\begin{gathered}{[R n] 5 s^{14} 6 d^7} 7 s^2\end{gathered}$79
It is clear that these elements differ in the number of electrons in the 6d-subshell and group number in periodic table.
2. 118, Uuo
