f block electron configuration

[@---ml4jd]

f block screws everything.

[@pranaysai7713]

Exactly!!

[@arinafolayan6683]

Yes!!!

THANK YOU MAN! Your the only person I could find that didn't use noble gas configuration.

[@angelamadrigales8998]

Thank you! Really helped clear up how to handle the f block 👍🏽

[@AdobeTracer]

Thank you David Walsh, when I was doing the electron configuration for Gold (Au) I was confused on where the 4f14 come from then it just went to 5d10 and 6s1 at the end. Now I still don't know why they want 4f14 if we go deeper for transition metals. Will figure that out soon. Trying to be come a bio-chemist.

this was a great video, but sounds like you are dealing with allergies or a cold with that nose

[@legolepsy5265]

David Walsh, you are my hero.

[@goldgemechu946]

Tnx for the video ..but u dont have to use dots ...u can represent using noble gas as a core like [Rn] 7s2 5f3

[@remus6846]

can you explain it to me this is what I am looking for me

[@GDPlainA]

​@@remus6846u can say its the shorthand notation (the simplified one) for example, the electronic configuration for Fe is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d⁶ we can shorten this instead by using a noble gas with an atomic number lower than that for Fe, which is Ar the electronic configuration for Ar is: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶ so we can use that and simplify into [Ar] and then continue so we dont have to keep on writing 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶ so for Fe, the shorthand notation will be [Ar] 4s²3d⁶ and this looks way shorter isnt it

Thank you and have a good day.

Thank you! I have test tomorrow and you helped me a lot (sorry if i wrote something wrong, i don t know much english).

[@asiawong5304]

Amazing absolutely brilliant

[@fathimashaik1241]

This helps a lot, thank you! I just have one question, would the electron configuration for gold be written like this: [Xe] 6s1 4f14 5d10?

[@danifierro8321]

i know this is late, but yes it would be [Xe] 6s2 4f12 5d10

[@inversedq2190]

@anasipka5636 i know this is late but Its because the fully filled inner orbital is more stable than fully filled outer orbital and an empty inner one

[@katerinamasic5022]

The electron configuration of Pa in the video doesn't align with what google says or other KZbin videos?

[@jorjeyyyy222]

How do you know the valence electrons of f block groups?

[@nirmalkumar1297]

Good work.thnx sir

[@michellewest6929]

Thank you sir! Really helpful!

[@kingcobra3329]

My professor or teacher is having me use a different periodic table, one where the S's have a third row including: Sc, Y, La, and Ac, at the bottom in the f region it's 58-71 and 90-103, which version is correct?

[@mariawirfel5418]

this periodic table and method is correct

[@kingcobra3329]

@@davidwalsh4545 Thanks.

[@Microplstics]

thanks I have an exam tomorrow

[@ehsanmunir7404]

Great example on the Neodymium, but what I'm tripped up on is the actual Energy Level presented on the Periodic Table for Protactinium, it's actually 2,8,18,32,20,9,2 What confuses me is that 9 clarifies that there is an extra electron in the 6th Energy Level instead of the 5th Energy Level (Presumed to be taken away from the 5f, correct?). Why is this?

[@pinchetii6555]

Thank you

[@MusaSalman-q6h]

Thanks, super helpful!

[@Wahib1610]

I love you❤

[@sabprogroup8623]

everywhere shows different things wtf, but i get it now here.

[@shahin2324]

Thanx for the video!!!

[@Az-no9tq]

thank you so much sir

[@jesuslanderos.2442]

Why does, in many pages, say that the electron configuration of the Pa has a 5f2 instead of 5f3?

[@kofiowusu8410]

I got atesttomorrow

Ffs blow ur nose
