Electronic Configuration

Electronic Configuration: -

  

        In which electrons are arranged into various orbitals around the nuclei of atoms are called Electronic Configuration.

1. s orbital: - Holds total of 2 electrons. Shape of 's' orbital is sphere

2. p orbital: - Holds total of 6 electrons. Shape of 'p' orbital is Peanut

3.  d orbital: - Holds total of 10 electrons. Shape of 'd' orbital is Double peanut.

4. f orbital: - Holds total of 14 electrons. Shape of 'f' orbital is far too complex.
