DONE

Aluminum; [Ne]3s²3p¹

Arsenic; [Ar]3d¹⁰4s²4p³

Explanation:

Aluminum

From the periodic table, we have that aluminum, Al, is located in period 3, and group 3A of the periodic table

Therefore, the noble gas that comes before aluminum in the periodic table is neon Ne

The electronic configuration of aluminum is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p¹

The electronic configuration of neon is 1s²2s²2p⁶

Therefore, the electronic configuration of aluminum in noble gas notation (Ne) is therefore;

[Ne]3s²3p¹

Arsenic

Arsenic is located after argon, Ar on the periodic table

The electronic configuration of arsenic is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d¹⁰4p³

The electronic configuration of argon is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶

The electronic configuration of arsenic in noble gas notation (Ar) is given as follows;

[Ar]3d¹⁰4s²4p³

the molecules move in straight line until they collide with each other or with the walls of the container. collisions are perfectly elastic; when two molecules collide, they change their directions and kinetic energies, but the total kinetic energy is conserved.
