How many unpaired electrons are present in the ground state Ge atom?

Answer 1

There are 6 unpaired electrons in Cr because it is an exception atom when doing electron configuration. Because of the extra stability with a full subshell, one of the two electrons in the 4s orbital will move up to the 3d orbital (which originally had only 4 unpaired) to make the 3d orbital full.

Now, there is one unpaired electron in the 4s orbital and 5 unpaired electrons in the 3d orbital, which adds up to 6 total.

Answer 2

None - it is an inert gas

Answer 3

Ge atoms have two unpaired electrons.
