Dysprosium is the 66th element in the periodic table and its symbol is \u2018Dy\u2019. Dysprosium is a classified lanthanide element. In this article, I have discussed in detail how to easily write the complete electron configuration of dysprosium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The total number of electrons in dysprosium is sixty-six. These electrons are arranged according to specific rules in different orbitals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The arrangement of electrons in dysprosium in specific rules in different orbits and orbitals is called the electron configuration<\/a> of dysprosium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The electron configuration of dysprosium is [Xe<\/a>] 4f10<\/sup>\u00a06s2<\/sup>,\u00a0if the electron arrangement is through orbitals. Electron configuration can be done in two ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Electron configuration through orbitals follows different principles. For example Aufbau principle, Hund\u2019s principle, and Pauli\u2019s exclusion principle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Scientist Niels Bohr was the first to give an idea of the atom\u2019s orbit. He provided a model of the atom in 1913. The complete idea of the orbit is given there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The electrons of the atom revolve around the nucleus in a certain circular path. These circular paths are called orbit(shell). These orbits are expressed by n. [n = 1,2,3,4 . . . The serial number of the orbit]<\/p>\n\n\n\n K is the name of the first orbit, L is the second, M is the third, and N is the name of the fourth orbit. The electron holding capacity of each orbit is 2n2<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
