Question
Decide which of the following atomic numbers are the atomic numbers of the inner transition elements:
29, 59, 74, 95, 102, 104
Advertisements
Solution
Elements having atomic numbers 59, 95, and 102 are classified as inner transition metals because they are lanthanoids and actinoids.
Pr (59): 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d10 5p6 6s2 4f3
Am (95): 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d10 5p6 6s2 4f14 5d10 6p6 7s2 5f7
No (102): 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d10 5p6 6s2 4f14 5d10 6p6 7s2 5f14
