Solution

  • An element with the atomic number 23 is Vanadium and its chemical symbol is V.
  • The electron configuration of the element Vanadium is: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d3

The formula for calculating group number for d - block element =No.ofelectrons(n-1)dsubshell+No.ofelectrons(n)ssubshell

  • Group number of V(23)=3+2=5

Hence, Vanadium belongs to the 5th group and d-block.
