Unabbreviated electron configuration of magnesium

Mg₁₂ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²

Explanation:

Abbreviated and unabbreviated electronic configuration:

The abbreviated electronic configuration uses the noble gas configuration i.e complete electronic shells. For example, the atomic number of neon is ten and magnesium is twelve. The abbreviated electronic configuration of magnesium is written by using the neon abbreviation in following way:

The electronic configuration of neon is given below:

Ne₁₀ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶

The abbreviated electronic configuration of magnesium:

Mg₁₂ = [Ne] 3s²

While the unabbreviated electronic configuration is written without using noble gas electronic configuration.

Unabbreviated electronic configuration of magnesium:

Mg₁₂ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s²

since the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus, as we move to the left on the periodic table, the electrostatic pull between the nucleus and the valence electron shell decreases. as we move down a group (vertical column), the valence shell energy level gets further and further from the nucleus.
