An atom of an element contains $29$ electrons and $35$ neutrons. Determine $(i)$ the number of protons and $(ii)$ the electronic configuration of the element.

  • A
    $29, 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 3d^9 4s^2$
  • B
    $29, 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 3d^{10} 4s^1$
  • C
    $35, 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 3d^{10} 4s^1$
  • D
    $35, 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 3d^9 4s^2$
