Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) [Ne]3s22p5

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We know that the valence shell electronic configuration for the d-block element is n-1d10ns2. Hence, in the first option the electronic configuration is Ne3s22p5 which does not similar to other electronic configuration of n-1d10ns2
