    The total number of electrons present in all the p-orbitals of bromine is:

    A) 7               

    B)        17

    C) 27

    D)                                        37

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Key Idea: Write electronic configuration of Br atom according to aufbau rule and count number electrons of p-orbitals. Br, atomic number is 35. Configuration of bromine is \[1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}},2{{p}^{6}},3{{s}^{2}},3{{p}^{6}},4{{s}^{2}},3{{d}^{10}},4{{p}^{5}}\] \[\therefore \]Total p electrons in \[Br=6+6+5=17\]
