Electron configuration

I was so angry at the school for doing a freaking fire drill in first hour when we had a FULL lecture day!!! Absolutely terrible. To top it off I wasn't quite understanding what electron configuration really was. But later I got a hold of it. Honestly this stuff is pretty tricky. I mean it's easy to find an element and just follow along the s, d, p, and f blocks. But the first day I learned all of it was stumped. It takes practice and time to learn. Most of all it takes patience! I'm just glad that the exceptions are pretty easy and they are basically in the same family or group and there r only six of them we have to know. But drawing the electron configuration did confuse me! But thankfully I got everything down!

  1. When that fire alarm rang, I was so mad! And of course it had to be on a day that she said that we needed to use the whole hour! Anyways, I felt the same way with configurations, once you get the hang of it the method becomes almost instinct.
