Pls help!

Refer to your periodic table. The orbital notation for Aluminum in the outer most shell would have how many electrons in the S orbital, and how many in the p orbital?
Question 6 options:

Answer:

correct option d

Step-by-step explanation:

electronic configration of aluminium is

1s2,2s2,2p6,3s2,3p1

so we have last shell as

3s2

3p1

so s will have 2 electron

and p will have 1 electron

have a great day!!
