The electron configuration of arsenic is: [Ar]4s23d104p3.
Arsenic
[Ar]4s23d104p3
Losing an electron cesium has a noble gas configuration.
Electron configuration is a term applied to chemical elements not to compounds.
There's two ways to answer this question. First electron configurations with half-filled sublevels are more stable then electron configurations that don't have half-filled sublevels. Since Selenium is one elctron away from achieving a more stable half-filled sublevel configuration it more readily gives up it's outermost electron, so less energy is requires to remove the outermost electron. Arsenic already has the stable configuration of half-filled sublevel so it wouldn't give up it's electron as readily, so more energy is required to remove it. Another way to look at it is that Selenium's outermost electron is in a p orbital that already has an electron so there is electron electron repulsion present in that orbital so it's attraction to the nucleus is less which is why less energy is required to remove it so the ionization energy is less. Arsenic has it's outermost electron unpaired in the p orbital so there is no electron electron repulsion present in that orbital so more energy is required to remove it then for Selenium's outer most electron. Hope this helps!

The electrical charge of the electron is negative. Proton is positive Neutron is neutral Electron is negative
The electron configuration for neutral Chlorine is 2.8.6.
1s2,2s2,2p6,3s2,3p3
Neutral calcium's electron configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2. Ca2+ is the ion of calcium, which means that it has 2 less electrons than neutral calcium. Therefore, its electron configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6.
Arsenic is paramagnetic because the electron configuration is {Ar}4s^2,3d^10,4p^3. Due to the unpaired electron at the end (4p^*3*) the atom in ground state is paramagnetic. **OR Arsenic would be paramagnetic since the 4 p orbitals each contain one electron with parallel spin. These three unpaired electrons give arsenic its paramagnetic property.
