How to calculate electron configuration?

Method 3 of 4: Using an ADOMAH Periodic Table Understand the ADOMAH Periodic Table. This method of writing electron configurations doesn’t require memorization. Find your atom in the ADOMAH table. To write electron configuration of an element, locate its symbol in ADOMAH Periodic Table and cross out all elements that have higher Count orbital sets up to your atom.

What does an electron configuration tell you?

Electron Configurations are an organized means of documenting the placement of electrons based upon the energy levels and orbitals groupings of the periodic table. The s or p tell us the orbital block. The superscript tells us the number of electrons in the orbital.

What is the purpose of an electron configuration?

The electron configuration is used to describe the orbitals of an atom in its ground state, but it can also be used to represent an atom that has ionized into a cation or anion by compensating with the loss of or gain of electrons in their subsequent orbitals.

What determines electron configuration?

The electron configuration of a system is determined by its orbitals and by the number of electrons present. If one wishes to deduce the configuration, one must know the orbitals. This is relatively simple for hydrogen, much more difficult for other atoms, and extremely difficult for molecules.
