Answer:
1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 4p²
Explanation:
This atom will likely have 4 electron shells denotation of – 2.8.8.4
Orbitals shells show the probability, in space around the nucleus, where to find an electron. It is important to note that the 3rd shell has an additional d orbital (-in addition to s and p). However, because the d orbital has a higher energy state than the 4s and 4p orbitals, the d orbital only fills up when these latter ones are completely filled. In this case, the 4p does not completely fill (hence we don't see the d orbital in the notation).
The solid compound, K2SO4 contains a cation called K+ and an anion called SO42-. In this case, there are 2 atoms of potassium, 1 atom of sulfur and 4 moles of oxygen. The compound also contains ionic bonds because of the composing non-metals and metal.
