Answer:

IODINE

Step-by-step explanation:

The sublevel notation of the element:

1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p⁶ 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p⁵

To find this element, we must add the powers of the each of the sublevels. This is the number of electrons in the orbital of the atom.

2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 10 + 6 + 2 + 10 + 5 = 53

This give atom has 53 electrons and we can assume it to have an atomic number of 53.

The element is IODINE
