1s22s22p4
1s22s22p43s1
1s22s22p43s2
Compound cation name / symbol anion name / symbol formula
KI potassium ion / K+ Iodide ion / I- KI
lithium phosphate Lithium ion / Li+ phosphate / PO4-3 Li3PO4
2. the following configuration is impossible
1s32s22p4 as the s orbital can accomodate only two electrons.
