29 C u =1 s 2, 2 s 2, 2 p 6, 3 s 2, 3 p 6, 4 s 1, 3 d 10 Cu +=1 s 2, 2 s 2, 2 p 6, 3 s 2, 3 p 6, 3 d 10, 4 s 0 Total number of shells occupied =3 Number of sub-shells occupied =6 Number of orbitals filled =14 Number of unpaired electrons =0

Q. In the ground state of $C u^{+}$ the number of shell occupied, sub-shells occupied, filled orbitals and unpaired electrons respectively are

4, 8, 15, 0

3, 6, 15, 1

3, 6, 14, 0

4, 7, 14, 2

$_{29} C_{u} = 1 s^{2}, 2 s^{2}, 2 p^{6}, 3 s^{2}, 3 p^{6}, 4 s^{1}, 3 d^{10}$
$C u^{+} = 1 s^{2}, 2 s^{2}, 2 p^{6}, 3 s^{2}, 3 p^{6}, 3 d^{10}, 4 s^{0}$
Total number of shells occupied $= 3$
Number of sub-shells occupied $= 6$
Number of orbitals filled $= 14$
Number of unpaired electrons $= 0$
