What is the electron configuration of (Si) in noble gas notation

[Ne] 3s² 3p²

Explanation:

Since the 3s if now full we'll move to the 3p where we'll place the remaining two electrons. Therefore the Silicon electron configuration will be 1s²2s²2p^63s²3p². The configuration notation provides an easy way for scientists to write and communicate how electrons are arranged around the nucleus of an atom.
