How many electrons are shown in the following electron configuration: 1s22s22p63s 23p64s23d104p65s24d105p66s2 ?
Express your answer numerically as an integer.

1s22s22p6

Explanation:

Neon is an element in the periodic table and has an atomic number of 10, which means it has 10 protons in its nucleus and thus since the number of protons and electrons is the same then it has 10 electrons.

Therefore, it has 2 electrons in the first energy shell and 8 electrons in the second energy shell. To elaborate further, the first shell has a single s-sub shell that contains a single s-orbital that can hold two electrons. The second energy shell has a single s-sub-shell whose s-orbital will occupy 2 electrons, and also has a p-orbital which can hold 6 electrons, making the second shell to have 8 electrons.

i don t now

i think the answer is terrae but not 100 percent sure. ▓▬▬ §
