What information does the electronic configuration of an atom provide?

Answered by admin @ 05/08/2021

● The distribution of elements in shells, subshells and orbital in an atom is known as electronic configuration.

● It provides the information of position of an electron in the space at atom.

● The distribution of elements in various atomic orbitals provides on understanding of electronic behaviour of the atom and in turn its reactivity.

● The short hand notation is shown as

${nl}^{x}$

Where 'n' denotes principle quantum number.

'l' denotes the angular momentum of quantum number.

'x' denotes the number.
