Electrons have a specific form of distribution (or configuration) in every atom, even Neptunium. Some are hard to memorise (or predict), so what is the electron configuration of an atom of Np?
In the case of Neptunium the abbreviated electron configuration is [Rn] 5f4 6d1 7s2. Nevertheless, check the complete configuration and other interesting facts about Neptunium that most people don't know.

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.
To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:
Luz, Gelson. "Electron Configuration of Neptunium (Np) [Complete, Abbreviated, Uses ..." Materials. Gelsonluz.com. dd mmmm. yyyy. <URL>
Now replace dd, mmmm and yyyy with the day, month, and year you browsed this page. Also replace URL for the actual url of this page (The < and > stay, ok?). This citation format is based on MLA.
