An atom of an element has two electrons in the first energy level and five electrons in the second energy level. Write the electron configuration and name the element. How many unpaired electrons does an atom of this element have?

Respuesta :

Answer:

electronic configuration: 1s^2,2s^2,2p^3            

name: nitrogen

unpaired electron: 3

Explanation:

fichoh

The atom with 2 electrons and 5 electrons in the first and second energy level is NITROGEN. The element has 3 unpaired electron.

  • The electronic configuration of the atom is 1s² 2s² 2p³

  • Since the atom has 7 Electrons, the element which has 7 electrons is NITROGEN.

  • The 2p orbital has 3 unpaired electrons in it's second energy level.

Therefore, the 2p orbital has 3 unpaired electrons in it's outermost shell.
