Answer 1

C and the other one is A

Step-by-step explanation:

trust me

Answer 2

Answer: Electronic configuration of

1. Aluminium is
`[Ne]3s^23p^1`

2. Arsenic is
`[Ar]4s^23d^(10)4p^3`

Step-by-step explanation: To write the electronic configuration of the elements in the noble gas notation, we first count the total number of electrons and then write the noble gas which lies before the same element.

• For Aluminium:

Atomic number = 13

Total number of electrons = 13

Noble gas which lies before this element is Neon (Ne).

Neon has 10 electrons, rest 3 electrons are filled in 3s and 3p sub-shells.

Electronic configuration of Aluminium becomes
`[Ne]3s^23p^1`

• For Arsenic:

Atomic number = 33

Total number of electrons = 33

Noble gas which lies before this element is Argon (Ar).

Neon has 18 electrons, rest 15 electrons are filled in 4s , 3d and 4p sub-shells.

Electronic configuration of Arsenic becomes
`[Ar]4s^23d^(10)4p^3`.
