Which of the following elements has an electronic configuration of 1s^2s^23p^63s^23p^1?

Question

F, Al, Mg or Ga? and what does that mean?

Answer 1

these are the electronic configuration for elements

if you look at the table you have

1

2

3

4

...

on the left, and it's divided into s,p,d and f  different areas in the table

i'm pretty sure it's Al

it's written easier by writing [Ne] 3s^2 3p^1

Answer 2

Umm...I think you wrote this wrong but I'll give you the electronic configuration's of all the one's you've listed.....

F - - - 1s2 2s2 2p5

AL - - - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1

Mg - - - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2

Ga - - - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s2 4p1

And electronic configuration is the arrangement of electrons in an atom....

I dunno if that's what you were looking for......????

Answer 3

I believe it's called 'Electron Configuration', if I remember right.

I think it's Al.

Answer 4

d**n!...dats madd hard

Answer 5

add the electrons which in this case would be 2+2+6+2+1 = 13.

that's atomic number 13 and thus it's Aluminum
