The element `Z=114` has been discovered recently. It will belong to which of the family`//`group and electronic configuration ?

Options

A. Carbon family, `[Rn]5f^(14)6d^(10)7s^(2)7p^(2)`
B. Oxygen family, `[Rn]5f^(14)6d^(10)7s^(2)7p^(4)`
C. Nitrogen family, `[Rn]5f^(14)6d^(10)7s^(2)7p^(6)`
D. Halogen family, `[Rn]5f^(14)6d^(10)7s^(2)7p^(5)`

Answer

A

Explanation

`Z=114[Rn]^(86)7s^(2)5f^(14)6d^(10)7p^(2)`
`14th gp`. (carbon family)
As present set of periodic table can have 118 elements so 118 lies in 18th group and 114 lies in 14th group so genral configuration is `ns^(2)np^(2)`.
