How do you write noble gas configuration?

Answer 1

"Noble gas configuration" means that in writing out an electron configuration for an atom, rather than writing out the occupation of each and every orbital specifically, you instead lump all of the core electrons together and designate it with the symbol of the corresponding noble gas on the Periodic Table (in brackets). For example, the noble gas configuration of the element nitrogen is [He]2s22p3

Answer 2

"Noble gas configuration" means that in writing out an electron configuration for an atom, rather than writing out the occupation of each and every orbital specifically, you instead lump all of the core electrons together and designate it with the symbol of the corresponding noble gas on the periodic table (in brackets). For example, the noble gas configuration of nitrogen is [He]2s22p3

Answer 3

To write a noble gas configuration, you can first identify the nearest noble gas element with a lower atomic number than the element you are working with. Then, write the noble gas element's electronic configuration in brackets followed by the remaining electrons in the outer shell of the element you are studying. This notation simplifies the electron configuration representation.
