Question
Part A pnictogens Express your answer in order of increasing orbital energy. For example, the electron configuration of Group 15 would be entered as ns^2np^3.
Part B Group 5A Express your answer in order of increasing orbital energy. For example, the electron configuration of Group 15 would be entered as ns^2np^3.
Part C Group 13 Express your answer in order of increasing orbital energy. For example, the electron configuration of Group 15 would be entered as ns^2np^3.
Part D Group 18 Express your answer in order of increasing orbital energy. For example, the electron configuration of Group 15 would be entered as ns^2np^3.
Explanation / Answer
Group 15 elements are called as pnictogens and their order of increasing orbital energy = ns^2np^3
Group 5A is also known as Group 15 and their order of increasing orbital energy = ns^2np^3
Group 13 elements and their order of increasing orbital energy = ns^2np^1
Group 18 elements and their order of increasing orbital energy = ns^2np^6
