Question

Write the full electon configuration of the period 3 element with the following successive ionization energy (KJ/mol)

I1=756; I2= 1223; I3=2732; I4=11,039; I5=14,228

Expert Solution
Step 1

The period 3 element with the given ionization energies is aluminum (Al).

The electron configuration of Al is:

1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹

The successive ionization energies for Al are:

I1 = 756 KJ/mol (removing 1 electron from 3p¹)

I2 = 1223 KJ/mol (removing 1 electron from 3p⁰)

I3 = 2732 KJ/mol (removing 1 electron from 3s²)

I4 = 11,039 KJ/mol (removing 1 electron from 2p⁶)

I5 = 14,228 KJ/mol (removing 1 electron from 2p⁵)
