Question

The electronic configuration of element 'S' is

• A. 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁴
• B. 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p3
• C. 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p²
• D. 1s²2s²2p^б3s²3p¹

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The element "S" refers to sulfur. The atomic number of sulfur is 16, meaning it has 16 electrons. The electron configuration for sulfur is: \[ 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^4 \] This corresponds to the first option, which shows sulfur's correct electron configuration.

The correct option is (A): \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^4\)
