Br = 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^2 3d^10 4p^5Br=1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p5

Br = [Ar] 4s^2 3d^10 4p^5Br=[Ar]4s23d104p5

Explanation:

Bromine is in the 4th4th energy level, pp block, 5th5th column, this means that the electron configuration will end 4p^54p5

Br = 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^2 3d^10 4p^5Br=1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p5

Br = [Ar] 4s^2 3d^10 4p^5Br=[Ar]4s23d104p5
