d. `Fe, e. Kr`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the number of unpaired electrons in the given elements (Phosphorus, Silicon, Chromium, Iron, and Krypton), we will analyze their electronic configurations step by step. ### Step 1: Phosphorus (P) - **Atomic Number**: 15 - **Electronic Configuration**: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p³ - **Analysis**: - The 3p subshell has 3 electrons. - The electron configuration of the p subshell can be represented as: ↑ ↑ ↑ (where each arrow represents an unpaired electron). ...
