a listing of the energy levels and sublevels of an atom with the number of electrons in those levels/sublevels.
Ex: 1s22s22p4 (what looks like exponents in math are the number of electrons)
1s2 indicates the 1st energy level has an 's' sublevel with 2 electrons
2s2 indicates the 2nd energy level has an 's' sublevel with 2 electrons
2p4 indicates the 2nd energy level has an 'p' sublevel with 4 electrons
total of 8 electrons in the atom

∙ 11y agoAn atom may have one or more orbitS.These orbits can accumulate a definite number of electrons.FOR INSTANCE,first orbit can accumulate maximum of two electrons,second orbit can accumulate eight electrons and so on.These orbits furthur consist of subshells or orbitals.This distribution of electrons among different orbits is known as ELECTRON CONFIGURATION.
