Question

Ni

Answer 1

Answer:

[Ar]3d^84s^2

Explanation:

From the question given, we are asked to write the condensed form of electronic configuration of nickel, Ni.

To do this, we simply write the symbol of the noble gas element before Ni in a squared bracket followed by the remaining electrons to make up the atomic number of Ni.

This is illustrated below:

The atomic number of Ni is 28.

The noble gas before Ni is Argon, Ar.

Therefore, the condensed electronic configuration of Ni is written as:

Ni(28) => [Ar]3d^84s^2
