Electronic Configuration

Science > Chemistry > Atomic Structure > Electronic Configuration The distribution of electrons in various shells and orbitals of an atom is known as electronic configuration. Generally electronic configuration is given by nlx. Where n is shell number, l is subshell and x are the number of electrons. Aufbau Principle: The arrangement of the electrons […]
