Titanium is a metal often used as an alloying agent to provide materials that are strong, lightweight, and temperature-resistant Which of the following represents the correct ground-state configuration for a neutral atom of titanium? A) 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 48°30°
B) 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s3d
C) 15*2s2p 3s 3p 4s
D) 15°2s 2p 3s 3p 3d

B) 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d

Explanation:

The ground state electron configuration shows how the electrons in the atomic orbitals of an atom are in their lowest , most stable energy arrangements and since Electrons must be filled following the Aufbau's principle(electrons fill lowest energy shells first)

Now, Titanium lies in period IV and  group 4 of the periodic table with 22 as its atomic number

Thus, the ground-state electron configuration of a neutral atom of titanium is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d².
