The abbreviated electron configuration of tin (Sn) can be written using the noble gas configuration of the element that precedes it in the periodic table. Tin (Sn) has an atomic number of 50.
The noble gas that comes before tin is krypton (Kr), which has the electron configuration [Kr] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p⁶.
To abbreviate the electron configuration of tin, you start with the noble gas configuration of krypton and then add the remaining electrons for tin. Tin has 50 electrons, so after krypton's configuration, tin's electron configuration would be:
[ Kr ] 5s² 4d¹⁰ 5p⁶ 5d¹⁰
This can be further abbreviated as:
[ Kr ] 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p⁶ 5d¹⁰
