I think the answer is 1s²2s²2p⁶.  Since neon has an atomic number of 10, we know that it needs to have 10 electrons and since it is in the second row it cannot have any d electrons which makes the first option incorrect.  The second option is incorrect because the 2s⁴ can't exist since s orbitals can only hold 2 electrons.  The fourth option cannot be right because it again neon cannot have d electrons due to it being in the second row.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

¿Qué elemento tiene el mismo número de órbitas que el Hidrógeno? ¿Por qué? ¿Tienen propiedades similares, por qué?
Aliun [14]

What element has the same number of orbits as Hydrogen? Why? Do they have similar properties, why?

Answer:

Helium

Explanation:

Helium has the same number of orbitals as hydrogen because they belong to the same period on the periodic table.

Periods are the horizontal arrangement of elements. Elements in the same period are known to have the same number of electronic shell or orbitals.

In period 1 where we have just Hydrogen and Helium, the number of orbitals is 1.

 

For properties of a specie, elements in the same group which are the vertical arrangement of elements have the same properties. Since both Hydrogen and helium are in different groups, their properties differ.
