Question

Period, group and atomic number of the elements that have the following electrical configurations: 1s2 2s2 2p3 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 1s2 2s2 2p5

Answer 1

If you follow the periodic table and its orbitals, you'll see that the element that has the electron configuration of 1s²2s²2p³ is Nitrogen. It's period, group, and atomic number are 2, 15, and 7 respectively. The other 2 are Neon, who's period, group, and atomic number are 2, 18, and 10 and the last one is Fluorine, who's period, group, and atomic number are 2, 17, and 9.
