What is the electron configuration of Be plus 2?

Answer 1

1s^22s^2

Or

[He]2s^2

First, look how many electrons are present. This is indicated by the atomic number located in the Periodic Table above the specific element. Secondly, use the list of orbitals to remember the order:

1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5p, 6s.

S=2 electrons

P=6 electrons

D=10 electrons

ex: The element Boron (B)= 1s^2 2s^2 2p^1. You are looking at the (^2, ^2, ^1). Which adds to five, the total number of electrons in a neutral Bromine element.

(There is an f, but it is rarely used)

Hope that helps!

Answer 2

Be, atomic number 4, electron configuration 1s2, 2s2 , so

Be2+ ion is (shorthanded) 1s2, 2s0, or simplified: 1s2

Answer 3

The atomic number of beryllium (Be) is 4, which means all Be atoms contain 4 protons. A neutral Be atom also contains 4 electrons. However, a Be2+ cation has lost two electrons.

Neutral Be atom: 1s2 2s2

Be2+ cation: 1s2

Answer 4

The electron configuration of Be plus 2 (Be2+) is 1s2. Beryllium (Be) normally has an electron configuration of 1s22s2. When it loses two electrons to become Be2+, it loses the two electrons in the 2s orbital, resulting in the 1s2 configuration.

Answer 5

Be is the third element in the periodic table and is written as (2,1)

Answer 6

Electron configuration of beryllium: 1s22s2
