(a)
Interpretation:
The number of valence electrons and the electronic configuration for the valence electrons of neon are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The elements are placed in periodic table in an increasing order of their
(b)
Interpretation:
The number of valence electrons and the electronic configuration for the valence electrons of rubidium are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The elements are placed in periodic table in an increasing order of their atomic numbers. The electronic configuration of these elements is the distribution of electrons in different shells, sub shells and orbital of the atom. The electrons in outermost shell are valence electrons, which take part in chemical reaction.

Interpretation:
The number of valence electrons and the electronic configuration for the valence electrons of aluminum are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The elements are placed in periodic table in an increasing order of their atomic numbers. The electronic configuration of these elements is the distribution of electrons in different shells, sub shells and orbital of the atom. The electrons in outermost shell are valence electrons, which take part in chemical reaction.
