MCQ
Which of the following options does not represent ground state electronic configuration of an atom?
- A1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d8 4s2
- B1s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d9 4s2
- C1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s1
- D1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d5 4s1
Explanation:
Correct configuration should be 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s1 for the copper which has atomic number 29(29Cu). Due to extra stability of full filled orbital of d-subshell, the last electron enter into d-orbital instead of s-orbital.
