3.1.1.3 Electron configuration

Content	Opportunities for skills development
$Electron configurations of atoms and ions up to Z = 36 in terms of shells and sub-shells (orbitals) s, p and d. Ionisation energies. Students should be able to: define first ionisation energy write equations for first and successive ionisation energies explain how first and successive ionisation energies in Period 3 (Na-Ar) and in Group 2 (Be-Ba) give evidence for electron configuration in sub-shells and in shells.$
