Lawrencium - 103Lr: properties of free atoms
Lawrencium atoms have 103 electrons and the shell structure is 2.8.18.32.32.9.2.
The ground state electron configuration of ground state gaseous neutral lawrencium is [Rn].5f14.6d1.7s2 (a guess based upon that of lutetium) and the term symbol is 2P1/2 (tentative).
