ELECTRONIC STRUCTURES
This page explores how you write electronic structures for atoms using s, p, and d notation. It assumes that you know about simple atomic orbitals - at least as far as the way they are named, and their relative energies. If you want to look at the electronic structures of simple monatomic ions (such as Cl-, Ca2+ and Cr3+),
The electronic structures of atoms
Relating orbital filling to the Periodic Table

Note: On some screens the V for vanadium (element 23) may look a bit like a Y. This isn't a mistake
