6Y = 2s12P1x2P1y2P1z this is_configuration
Correct answer: A. Excited state
- A. Excited state
- B. Ground state
- C. Hybrid state
- D. molecular state
Explanation
According to the atomic number of the element,there must be 2 electrons in 2p subshell but one electron jumps from 2s subshell to 2p subshell to patially fill it,hence there are 3 electrons in 2p subshell and this state is called the excited state.

About Atomic Structure
Atomic structure covers the discovery of the proton, Planck's quantum theory, hydrogen emission spectra and the evidence for quantized energy levels. You will use quantum numbers to describe orbitals, distinguish s, p, d and f orbital shapes, and write electronic configurations, including the correct order of electron filling.
