Answer:
1s²,2s²,2p⁶,3s²,3p⁶,4s²,3d¹⁰,4p⁶,5s⁰,4d¹⁰.
Explanation:
Palladium is a chemical element with the symbol Pd and atomic number 46.
The electronic configuration is;
[Kr] 4d¹⁰
The full electronic configuration observed for palladium is given as;
1s²,2s²,2p⁶,3s²,3p⁶,4s²,3d¹⁰,4p⁶,5s⁰,4d¹⁰.
The reason for for the anomlaous electron configuration is beacuse;
1. Full d orbitals are more stable than partially filled ones.
2. At higher energy levels, the levels are said to be degenerated which means that they have very close energies and then electrons can jump from one orbital to another easily.
