<u>Answer:</u> The element having given electronic configuration is magnesium.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Electronic configuration is defined as the representation of electrons around the nucleus of an atom.  Number of electrons in an atom are determined by the electronic configuration.

Atomic number is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons present in a neutral atom.

We are given an electronic configuration: 1s^22s^22p^63s^2

The total number of electrons = [2 + 2 + 6 + 2] = 12

The atom having atomic number 12 is magnesium.

Hence, the element having given electronic configuration is magnesium.

What is wrong in the student’s reasoning is that the uncontrolled chain reactions can only happen during nuclear fission.

geniusboy [140]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. There would be 150 sodium ions that will be transported across the cell membrane.  Each ATP molecule aids in moving 3 Na+ across the membrane. So, 50 times 3 is equal to 150.
