Consider the elements selenium (Z = 34), bromine (Z = 35), and krypton (Z = 36). In their part of the periodic table, the subshells of the electronic states are filled in the sequence 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 3d 4s 4p . . . . What are (a) the highest occupied subshell for selenium and (b) the number of electrons in it, (c) the highest occupied subshell for bromine and (d) the number of electrons in it, and (e) the highest occupied subshell for krypton and (f) the number of electrons in it?
