Write the electronic configuration of 19K40.
2, 8, 9
Neil's Bohr proposed that each shell can accommodate a maximum of 2n2, where n is the shell number.
The atomic number of potassium is 19 and the mass number is 40.
According to the Neil's Bohr out of the 19 electrons, K shell can accommodate 2 electrons, L shell can accommodate 8 electrons, M shell can accommodate 8 electrons and N shell had one electron in it.
Hence the electronic configuration of potassium is (2,8,8,1).
