Marks: +1, -0
(i) Write the electronic configurations of the following ions :
(a) H−\mathrm{H}^{-}
(b) Na+\mathrm{Na}^{+}
(c) O2−\mathrm{O}^{2-}
(d) F−\mathrm{F}^{-}
(ii) What are the atomic numbers of elements whose outermost electrons are represented by
(a) 3s13s^{1}
(b) 2p32p^{3} and
(c) 3p53p^{5}?
(iii) Which atoms are indicated by the following configurations?
(a) [He] 2s1[\mathrm{He}]\,2s^{1}
(b) [Ne] 3s2 3p3[\mathrm{Ne}]\,3s^{2}\,3p^{3}
(c) [Ar] 4s2 3d1[\mathrm{Ar}]\,4s^{2}\,3d^{1}.
Solution:  
(i) The respective electronic configurations are :
(a) H−\mathrm{H}^{-} → 1s21s^{2}
(b) Na+\mathrm{Na}^{+} → 1s2 2s2 2p61s^{2}\,2^{s2}\,2p^{6}
(c) O2−\mathrm{O}^{2-} → 1s2 2s2 2p61s^{2}\,2s^{2}\,2p^{6}
(d) F−\mathrm{F}^{-} → 1s2 2s2 2p61s^{2}\,2s^{2}\,2p^{6}
(ii) (a) 3s13s^{1} → 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s11s^{2}\,2s^{2}\,2p^{6}\,3s^{1}
∴ The atomic number of element = 11
(b) 2p32p^{3} → 1s2 2s2 2p31s^{2}\,2s^{2}\,2p^{3}
∴ The atomic number of element = 7
(c) 3p53p^{5} → 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p51s^{2}\,2s^{2}\,2p^{6}\,3s^{2}\,3p^{5}
∴ The atomic number of element = 17
(iii) (a) [He] 2s1[\mathrm{He}]\,2s^{1} → Lithium, Li
(b) [Ne] 3s2 3p3[\mathrm{Ne}]\,3s^{2}\,3p^{3} → Phosphorus, P
(c) [Ar] 4s2 3d1[\mathrm{Ar}]\,4s^{2}\,3d^{1} → Scandium, Sc
