<h3>Further explanation
</h3>
Electrons can move the shell up or down by releasing energy or absorbing energy
Excited electrons show higher electron transfer to the shell by absorbing energy
So it can be concluded that there are 2 conditions:
Ground state is the state of electrons filling shell with the lowest energy levels.
Excited state is the state of electrons which occupies a higher energy level
The state of excited electrons can be seen from the presence of electrons which do not fill the skin completely but fill the skin afterward

From its 8 electron configuration, filling 3 shells, 2 electrons in the firs shell, 7 electrons in the second shell and 1 electron in the third shell
the electrons in the third shell should fill the electrons in the second shell first according to Aufbau rule (lower energy shells)
Answer
I think it might be B
Explanation
Catenation is the property by which it can make bonds with other carbon<span> atoms to form long chains. Hence, </span>carbon<span>, with the least diffuse valence shell p orbital is capable of forming longer p-p sigma bonded chains of atoms than heavier elements which bond via higher valence shell orbitals.</span>
Answer:
a) alkali metals
Explanation:
The element described above definitely belonged to the alkali metals, the first group on the periodic table. They show the properties indicated in the text.
- They are metals because only metals are lustrous and malleable. This eliminates the possibility of them being halogens and noble gases.
- Only group 1 metals reacts vigorously with water to form alkali.
- Alkali are aqueous solutions that are basic in nature.
- The reactivity of group 1 metals is due to their one extra electrons in the outer most shell.
- These electrons are easily and readily lost in order for such atoms to gain stability and replicate the nearest noble gases.
- The most reactive metal belongs to this group elements.
- This is why it is nearly impossible to find them occurring alone in free state.
- Some of the elements in this group are Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs and Fr.
- Transition metals have variable oxidation states and some can be found alone in nature.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Competition is the act of competing with one another for a particular resource. An example is two animals quarrelling over a food or two people quarreling over who lost their money. Competing is a type of rivalry in which two people compete for one resource. The answer for this question is True.
