We are asked to consider the titanium 2 plus ion and the element that it's isoelectronic with, the calcium atom.
00:10
Our first question is, are there any differences in the electron configuration? so let's write these out quick.
00:29
These aren't very long, so i'll just go ahead and write them out 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p6.
00:42
And then these last two, we could write out as 3d1, 4s2, and sometimes you'll see these 4s2, 3d1.
00:56
And calcium, that's for the element.
01:00
This is for the element.
01:01
This is not the ion yet.
01:06
And for the ion, it's going to lose this.
01:08
So it'll be 1s2.
01:11
I'm just going to go with argon here up to argon, and then 3.
01:22
D.
01:27
So calcium will also be up to argon and it will be 4s2.
01:39
Let me look here, it's 3d2.
01:41
I'm sorry, this is 3d2.
01:44
3d2.
01:44
There we go...
