    Which of the following is the atomic number of metal?

    A)  32                                         

    B)  34                         

    C)         36                         

    D)         38

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Elements having 1, 2 or 3 electron in its last shell act as metals. \[32=[Ar]4{{s}^{2}}3{{d}^{10}}4{{p}^{2}}\] (4 electron in last shell two in 4s and 2 in 4p) \[\Rightarrow \] non metal \[34=[Ar]4{{s}^{2}}3{{d}^{10}}4{{p}^{4}}\] (4 electron in last shell -2 in 4s and 4 in 4p\[\Rightarrow \] non metals \[36=[Ar]4{{s}^{2}}3{{d}^{10}}4{{p}^{6}}\] (8 electron in last shell 2 in 45 and 6 is 4p) \[\Rightarrow \] inert gas \[38=[Kr]5{{s}^{2}}\] (only 2 electron in last shell) \[\therefore \] metal
