    Which one of the following represents noble gas configuration?

    A)  \[1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{6}},3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{6}}3{{d}^{10}},4{{s}^{2}}4{{p}^{6}}4{{d}^{10}}\],         \[5{{s}^{2}},5{{p}^{6}}5{{d}^{6}},6{{s}^{2}}\]

    B)  \[1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{6}},3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{5}}\],        \[5{{s}^{2}},5{{p}^{6}}5{{d}^{1}},6{{s}^{2}}\]

    C)  \[1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{6}},3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{6}}3{{d}^{10}},4{{s}^{2}}4{{p}^{6}}4{{d}^{10}}\], \[5{{s}^{2}}5{{p}^{6}}\]

    D)  \[1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{6}},3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{6}}3{{d}^{10}},4{{s}^{2}}4{{p}^{6}}4{{f}^{14}}\], \[5{{s}^{2}}5{{p}^{6}}5{{d}^{1}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Key Idea: Convert these configurations to 2, 8, 18 scheme to find which of them has noble gas configuration that is 8 electrons in valence shell. [a] 2, 8, 18, 18,14,2 [b] 2, 8, 18, 18, 9,2                 [c] 2, 8, 18, 18, 8 [d] 2, 8, 18, 16, 1 (configuration is wrong) < \[\because \] only [c] has 8 electrons in valence shell.
