REPRESENTING ELECTRON CONFIGURATIONS
We’ve seen that electron configurations may be shown using an energy level diagram (orbital filling
diagrams), electron configuration notation or noble gas configuration, or electron dot notation. This
worksheet will allow you to practice these various methods for atoms and ions.
ELEMENT: Ca
1. Write the full electron configuration. ______________________________________
2. How many valance electrons does Ca have?
3. Write the electron dot notation to show the valence electrons.
4. Write the noble gas configuration. ______________________________________
5. Ca loses 2 electrons when it becomes an ion (Ca+2), which electrons are lost?
6. When calcium loses 2 electrons, it will have the same configuration as the noble gas
____________. This means that Ca will have a full octet and will be more stable than the ion.
ELEMENT: Mn
1. Write the full electron configuration. ______________________________________________
2. How many valence electrons does Mn have? Remember to count only those that are in the
outermost energy level.
3. Write the electron dot notation to show the valence electrons.
4. Write the noble gas configuration.________________________________________
5. Mn can have a charge of +2,+3,+4,+6, and +7, which electrons are lost when Mn becomes +2,
+7?
