Explanation / Answer

Give full and condensed electron configurations, partial orbital diagrams showing valence electrons, and the number of inner electrons for the following elements. (Type your answer in noble gas notation using the format [Ar] 4s2 3d10 4p2 for [Ar] 4s23d104p2. Enter UP to indicate an upwards pointing arrow, DOWN to indicate a downwards pointing arrow, UP/DOWN to indicate two arrows, and BLANK to indicate no arrows.)
(a) Ni (Z = 28)
electron configuration = 1s22s22p63s23p6 4s2 3d8

condensed electron configuration [Ar]4s2 3d8

inner electrons [Ne]3s23p6 4s2 3d8 = [He]2s22p63s23p6 4s2 3d8
