The statement that is NOT TRUE about electron configurations is:
"it shows how electrons have different charges"
Electron configurations describe the distribution and arrangement of electrons in an atom, as well as their energy levels and subshells, but they do not convey information about different charges of electrons. All electrons have the same negative charge.
