<h3>Answer:</h3>

                     1s², 2s², 2p⁴

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

                      Electronic configuration is the distribution of electrons of an atom in atomic orbitals. As we know Oxygen is a non metal and is present in group 6 and period 2 with atomic number 8. The atomic number in fact specifies the number of protons. Hence, for a neutral oxygen atom there must be 8 electrons to balance the charges of protons.

                        These 8 electrons are distributed in two main energy levels i.e. n = 1 and 2 and sub energy levels i.e. s and p. According to certain rules like Aufbau Principle, Pauli's Exclusion Principle and Hund's Rule the electronic configuration for eight electrons is as,

                                           1s², 2s², 2px², 2p¹, 2p¹

At noon on a clear day, sunlight reaches the earth\'s surface at Madison, Wisconsin, with an average intensity of approximately
aleksandrvk [35]

I = average intensity of sunlight reaching at Madison = 2000 Js⁻¹m⁻²

A = area on which the light strike = 4.80 cm² = 4.80 x 10⁻⁴ m²

energy received per second by the area is given as

E = IA

inserting the values

E = (2000) (4.80 x 10⁻⁴)

E = 0.96 J

λ = wavelength of the photons in the sunlight = 510 x 10⁻⁹ m

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

h = plank's constant = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ J-s

n = number of photons received per second

energy received per second is also given as

E = n h c /λ

inserting the values

0.96 = n (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴) (3 x 10⁸) /(510 x 10⁻⁹)

n = 2.5 x 10¹⁸ per second
