Answer:
Have 2 filled orbitals and 3 partially filled orbitals.
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the given information of the electron configuration for that particle; it is possible for us to infer it has 5 valence electrons, as the electrons on its outermost shell (2). Moreover, we undertand this particle needs three bonds, does not have neither the electron configuration of a noble gas which ends by p⁶ nor that of an alkali earth metal as it ends by s².
Therefore, we infer the correct answer is Have 2 filled orbitals and 3 partially filled orbitals because according to the Hund's rule, the s orbital is fulfilled and the p orbital has 1 electron orbital fulfilled and two partially filled orbitals.
Regards!
