Answer: The symbol for the given element is S.
Explanation:-
Sulphur is an element with atomic number 16 and thus contain 16 electrons. It is a p block element as the last electron enters the p orbital. The nearest noble gas is Neon with 10 electrons.
The electrons are filled according to Afbau's rule in order of increasing energies and thus the electronic configuration is:
[tex]S:16:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^4[/tex]
The electronic configuration of sulphur in terms of noble gas is :
[tex]S:16:[Ne]3s^23p^4[/tex]
