The correct option is ARGON.
To quickly find out the element that is been described by the electronic configuration, write down and add together all the index figures in the electronic configuration. The index figures in the above electronic configuration are 2, 2, 6, 2 and 6. If you add all these figures together, you will get 18 and the element that has the atomic number of 18 is argon.
Explanation:
It is more difficult to remove electrons from the second shell or energy level because of the imbalance between the positive nuclear charge and the remaining electrons.
- The amount of energy required to remove electrons in ground state of an atom is the ionization energy.
- The first ionization energy is the energy needed to remove the most loosely bound electron of an atom in the gas phase in ground state.
- The second energy has a greater nuclear pull as it is closer to the nucleus.
- Both potassium and silicon have the same number of energy levels.
The cause of no gravity means the effect will be we float.
