In full starting with 1s and through each level. The noble gas form, where only the electrons above the highest noble gas configuration are shown, the noble gas is in square brackets. Example chlorine 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p5 [Ne]) 3s2 3p5


Which element have no neutrons in its atom?

The most common isotope of Hydrogen lacks a neutron in its nucleus. But there is an isotope, called deuterium, that has one neutron. Additionally, there is a hydrogen isotope that is artificially created that has two neutrons in its nucleus. It is called tritium. A link to the Wikipedia article on the isotopes of hydrogen is provided.
