Electron configuration is the electron distribution in the molecular and atomic orbital. An element with configuration ns²np¹ will be in the 3A group. Thus, option B is correct.
<h3>What is electronic configuration?</h3>
The electronic configuration has been the arrangement and distribution of the sub-atomic particle, an electron in the atomic shells.
The electronic configuration given is, ns²np¹. Here, there are three valence electrons in the outermost orbit. As it has been known that the number of the valence electron gives the number of the group.
Therefore, option B. 3A group or 13 group is the correct option.

Your question is incomplete, but most probably your full question was, An element with the general electron configuration for its outermost electrons of ns2np1 would be in which group?
a. 2a
b. 3a
c. 4a
d. 5a
e. 8a
Answer:
Correc option: 
Explanation:
size of atom : it says somthing about how many shell present in a particular atom or ion and it can also be evaluated on the basis of radius of atom.
Br^- and Kr has highest number of shell as compared to other group of species .
Na ,S , Mg ,P all are from 3rd period but Kr and Br^- in the 4th period so size of species of this group will more,
Size increases on increasring the shell number
He used that name because if you lit hydrogen on fire it would catch. therefore, it was dangerous to be around. think of it as a kind of warning. :) hope that helps.
