It would be: 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2
Answer:
Don't mark me brainliest because of this but I'm pretty sure your supposed to give us the words because teachers don't give you things like that without the words you will the answer in with.
Basically, the arrangement of electrons in electronic configuration follows three principles:
1. Aufbau Principle
You start from the highest energy level to the lowest. The arrangement is: <span>1s<2s<2p<3s<3p<4s<3d<4p<5s<4d<5p<6s<4f<5d<6p<7s<5f<6d<7p.
2. Hund's Rule
Each box in the configuration can hold up to 2 electrons. This rule tells you to fill all boxes of one particular subshell with 1 electron first, before double occupying them.
3. Pauli's Exclusion Principle
This rule tells you that the two electrons in a box shall always have opposite spins, represented by one half-arrow up and one half-arrow down.</span>
