Atomic Number of Zinc is 30, means it contains 30 electrons. So, its electronic configuration is as follow,

                                    1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰
As,
          1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶  =  Argon
So,
Electronic configuration of Zinc in shorthand notation is as follow,

                                     [Ar] 4s², 3d¹⁰

The shorthand noble gas electronic configuration of Zn is [Ar] [tex]\rm 4s^2\;3d^1^0[/tex].

The Zn belongs to period 4 of the periodic table. It has the atomic number 30. It states that it has 30 electrons. The electrons are distributed according to the octet rule:

[tex]\rm 1s^2\;2s^2\;2p^6\;3s^2\;3p^6\;4s^2\;3d^1^0[/tex]

For the noble gas shorthand notation, the nearest noble gas is argon, with electronic configuration:

[tex]\rm 1s^2\;2s^2\;2p^6\;3s^2\;3p^6[/tex]

So, the electron configuration of Zn using the noble-gas shorthand notation will be:

[Ar] [tex]\rm 4s^2\;3d^1^0[/tex]
