The electron configuration that corresponds to the valence electrons of an element for which there is an especially large jump between the second and third ionization energies is ns^2.
The valence electron configuration of an atom refers to the arrangement of electrons on the outermost shell of the atom.
Recall that a large jump in ionization energy occurs when electrons are removed from inner shells of the atom.
If we study our options closely, we will discover that option A has only two electrons in the valence shell (ns^2).
This means that the third ionization energy involves removing electrons from an inner shell which leads to large jump.

Answer: none of the above
Explanation:
It should be 2,1,1,2 to give a balanced chemical reaction
In a physical change the appearance or form of the matter changes but the kind of matter in the substance does not. However in a chemical change, the kind of matter changes and at least one new substance with new properties is formed. Hope this helps!
