Write out the orbital box diagram and the condensed electron configuration not the Nobel Gas electron configuration) for Silicon:

Answer 1

The atomic number of silicon is 14, indicating that it has 14 electrons.

The orbital box diagram for silicon can be represented as follows:

1s: ↑↓
2s: ↑↓ 2p: ↑↓ ↑↓ ↑

The condensed electron configuration for silicon is:

[Ne] 3s² 3p²
