Write the distribution of electrons in carbon and sodium atoms.
The distribution of electrons in Carbon is K-2, L-4 or 1s22s22p2 and that of sodium is K-2, L-8, M-1 or 1s22s22p63s1
Explanation:
Carbon: Its atomic number is 6
If we see the shell-wise electronic distribution then its 6 electrons are divided as the following
Electrons in K – Shell = 2
Electrons in L – Shell = 4
And its proper electronic configuration comes out to be 1s22s22p2
Sodium: Its atomic number is 11
If we the shell-wise electronic distribution then its 11 electrons are divided as the following
Electrons in K – Shell = 2
Electrons in L – Shell = 8
Electrons in M – Shell = 1
And the electronic configuration comes out to be 1s22s22p63s1
