Question

The electron configuration of Carbon is 1s²2s²2p² and Nitrogen is 1s²2s²2p³.

How are the electron configurations of carbon and nitrogen different?
(1 point)
O Carbon has more electrons in its p orbital.
O The electron configurations are the same.
O Carbon has more electrons in its s orbital.
O Nitrogen has more electrons in its p orbital.

Answer 1

Nitrogen has more electrons in it’s p orbital, carbon has two and nitrogen has three, being D or the last answer choice.
