MCQ
The total number of electrons present in all the $p$-orbitals of bromine are
  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $18$
  • $17$
  • D
    $35$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$17$
c
(c) The atomic number of bromine is $35$  and the electronic configuration of $Br$ is $B{r_{35}} = \,1{s^2},\,2{s^2},\,2{p^6},\,3{s^2},\,3{p^6},\,3{d^{10}},\,4{s^2},\,4{p^5}$

total electron present in $p-$ orbitals of $Br$ is -

$2{p^6} + 3{p^6} + 4{p^5} = 17.$
