【5 Steps】Electron Configuration of Iron(Fe) ||Electron configuration for Iron(Fe)|| Iron(Fe) electron configuration

Electron Configuration of Iron(Fe) 






Now we are going to reveal how to do or find   electron configuration or write electronic configuration of iron (Fe).To do or find or write electronic configuration for iron (Fe),we will follow just 5 steps.


                   Step-1:

To do electron configuration of iron,we have to know the atomic number of the iron(Fe).


The atomic number of iron is 26.So iron has 26 electrons and 26 protons.Look how I find the electron configuration of this iron.This process is applicable for all the elements of the periodic table.

                      Step-2:

Now to do electronic configuration of iron, we are bound to memorize the following sequence of the orbitals.


ss   


ps ps 


dps  dps   


fdps fdps fdps fdps....



In a line-


ss ps ps dps dps fdps fdps 


fdps fdps fdps fdps.......               



  Step-3:


Now we have to first numer the s-orbital (start with 1s)like this:


1s2s  


p3s   p 4s


dp 5s  dp 6s



fdp7s  fdp 8s...... According to your need.



In a line-


1s2s  p3s   p 4s dp 5s  dp 6s




fdp7s  fdp 8s........


Remember● s-orbital start with 1s

                  ●   p-orbital start with 2p
                   
                    ●  d-orbital start with 3d
                      ● f-orbital start with 4f



Again,Now(second) we need  number the p-orbital(start with 2p) like this:



ss   


2ps  3ps 

d 4ps   d 5ps   

fd6ps fd7ps fd8ps fd9ps....


In a line--



ss  2ps  3ps  d4ps   d5ps   


fd6ps fd7ps fd8ps fd9ps....




Thirdly,we need number the d-orbital(start with 3d)like this:




ss   


ps ps 

3dps  4dps   

f5dps f6dps f7dps f8dps....



In a line--



ss ps ps 3dps  4dps  


 f5dps f6dps f7dps f8dps....



Fourthly,number the f-orbital(start with 4f) like this:




ss   


ps ps 

dps  dps   

4fdps  5fdps 6fdps 7fdps....


In a line--



ss  ps ps dps  dps  4fdps  5fdps 6fdps 7fdps......



Fifltly,number s,p,d,f together like this....


1s2s

2p3s   3p4s

3d4p5s 4d5p6s


4f5d6p7s  5f6d7p8s 


6f7d8p9s.........



In a line----


1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p 5s d 5p 6s 4f 5d 6p 7s 5f 6d 7p 8s 

6f 7d 8p 9s.........

How to Do Electron Configuration of Fe

               Step-4:



Now we have to know that


•S-orbital can take maximum 2 electrons.


•p-orbital can take maximum 6 electrons.


•d-orbital can take maximum 10 electrons.


•f-orbital can take  maximum 14 electrons.

              Step-5:



Now we know that iron has 26 electrons.


Electron configuration of iron will be...



s² s²


p⁶s² p⁶s²


d⁶ps  dps


fdps fdps fdps....


So,we are getting..



s² s²

p⁶s² p⁶s²


d⁶



Now number s-orbital according  to above process.


1s² 2s²


p⁶ 3s² p⁶ 4s²


d⁶




Now number p-orbital according to above process.


1s² 2s²


2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s²



d⁶



Now number d-orbital according to above process.



1s² 2s²


2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s²




3d⁶



In a line---



1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d⁶




So the electronic configuration of Iron(Fe) is given below:

1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d⁶

  
Remember that the electronic configuration of any element is written in the assending (low to high) order of  n.Finally,the above electronic configuration should be written according to value of n as follows.
