(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Based on the given electronic configurations, the corresponding metal or ion has to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Electronic configuration:

The electronic configuration means the distribution of electrons in the atomic or molecular orbitals.

Electronic configuration of a metal atom or ions means the distribution of electrons in the atomic orbitals of a metal atom or ion.

The symbols in the electronic configuration of atomic orbitals are:

[He] is called the helium core and it represents the electronic configuration 1s2

[Ne] is called the neon core and it represents the electronic configuration 1s22s22p6

[Ar] is called the argon core and it represents the electronic configuration [Ne]3s23p6

[Kr] is called the krypton core and it represents the electronic configuration [Ar]4s23d104p6

[Xe] is called the xenon core and it represents the electronic configuration [Kr]5s24d105p6

[Rn] is called the radon core and it represents the electronic configuration [Xe]6s24f145d105p6
