Zara Perkins · Answer 1

1 = Magnesium

2 = Option 3 = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶

Explanation:

An electrically neutral atom consist of equal number of protons and electrons.

The answer for 1st q is magnesium because the electronic configuration showed twelve number of electrons. The atomic number of magnesium is twelve that's why this configuration is of Mg.

Mg₁₂ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²

The second answer is option three because has atomic number ten and third electronic configuration have ten electrons.

Ne₁₀ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶

It is stable electronic configuration. Neon is inert because of this electronic configuration. The outer most shell is completely filled.
