The investigator will find that 1s2 2s2 2p6 is the electron configuration for neon.
The full configuration of He 2s2 2p6 is 1s2 2s2 2p6. This configuration represents a neutral oxygen atom with its electrons distributed in the 1s, 2s, and 2p orbitals.
1s2 2s2 2p6
Sulfur is the group 16, period 3 chemical element. Thus, its electron configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4. Another way to write this is [Ne] 3s2 3p4 since the initial portion of the configuration is the same as neon's.

Ground state: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1Excited state: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4p1The 4s1 electron jumped into the 4p sublevel, which has higher energy than the 4s sublevel. This is very unstable, and the electron will drop back down into the 4s sublevel, emitting radiation, including visible light.This is not the only possible excited state, but is just one example.
This element is chlorine (group 17).
