It is easier to determine the electron configurations for the p-block elements in periods 1, 2, and 3 than to determine the electron configurations for the rest of the p-block elements in the periodic table because they have a larger number of core electrons.
their electrons are assigned to s and p orbitals only.
their electrons are placed in a higher number of orbitals.
they have more valence electrons available for bonding.

Their electrons are placed in a higher number of orbitals

Explanation:

The atomic no is 31

The configuration is given by

Or

answer: the rate of diffusion increases with increase in temperature.

increase in temperature, increases the molecular/particles speed (kinetic energy. diffusion means movement of particles through the material.

generally, the heavier the particle the more it interacts with the environment and more the temperature matters. so higher temperature results in higher diffusion.

atomic number of carbon is 6

electronic configuration of carbon is 1s²2s²2p²
