It covers sodium's electron configuration and introduces shorthand notation using noble gas symbols for simplification. The approach applies to subsequent periods, referencing various noble gases. The text ends with review questions on specific configurations.

This technique facilitates quantitative analysis by relating a cell???s potential to the concentration of electroactive species using the Nernst equation. It also covers different types of electrodes used in potentiometry, such as ion-selective electrodes, the significance of reference electrodes, and the impact of junction potentials.
