The arrangement of valency electrons in excited state of carbon is :
  1. 2s22px12py1
  2. 2s12px12py12pz1
  3. 2s22px2
  4. 2s12px22py1

A
2s22px2
B
2s12px22py1
C
2s22px12py1
D
2s12px12py12pz1
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Ground state valency electronic configuration of carbon is 2s22p1x2p1y
Excited state valency electronic configuration of carbon is 2s12p1x2p1y2p1z
So answer is D.
