To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:
Luz, Gelson. "Electron Configuration of Xenon (Xe) [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.
