The option that correctly shows the electron configuration for the atom with one more electron than the one shown above would be the second diagram.

According to Hund's rule, electrons are distributed into empty orbitals singly before pairing can start.

Following the rule:

  • diagram 1 is incorrect because the first 3p orbital is already paired while the third one remains empty.
  • diagram 3 is incorrect because the orientation of the electron in the third p orbital is wrong
  • diagram 4 is incorrect because the first 3p orbital already has 2 electrons (with a disoriented one) while the third 3p orbital remains empty.

The only diagram that follows Hund's rule is diagram 2.
