Detailed explanation-1: -Three methods are used to write electron configurations: orbital diagrams. spdf notation. noble gas notation.
Detailed explanation-2: -Orbital Notation-While electron configurations provide some information about the location of electrons in an atom, orbital notations provide all four quantum numbers and thus, the “complete address” of electrons.
Detailed explanation-3: -Orbital notations Use blanks to represent orbitals and arrows to represent electrons and looks like this: 1 2 3 4 5 8 6 7 ↑↓ ↑↓ ↑↓ ↑ ↑ The electrons are numbered as to the filling order. 1s 2s 2p Notice electrons 5, 6, 7 went into their own orbitals before electron 8 forced a pairing. This minimizes repulsion.
Detailed explanation-4: -An electron configuration diagram is a model that depicts the position of electrons as they orbit the nucleus of an atom. Electrons are represented by dots or crosses and are positioned in energy levels, or ‘shells’, around the central nucleus.
Detailed explanation-5: -Draw a long vertical arrow that points upward. Write out the electron configuration to determine which orbitals are filled. Along the right side of the energy arrow, write each electron shell that is being filled. Next to each electron shell level, draw a box for each subshell. More items
