Identify the atomic number of cobalt (Co), which is 27, and write its ground-state electron configuration. The full configuration is \$1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 3d^7 4s^2\(, which can be abbreviated as \)[Ar] 3d^7 4s^2$.
Understand that Co(II) means cobalt has lost two electrons, so you need to remove two electrons from the neutral cobalt configuration to find the electron configuration of Co\(^{2+}\).
Recall that when transition metals form cations, electrons are removed first from the outermost shell, which is the 4s orbital, before the 3d orbitals.
Remove two electrons from the \$4s^2\( orbital of the neutral cobalt configuration \)[Ar] 3d^7 4s^2\(, resulting in \)[Ar] 3d^7\( for Co\)^{2+}$.
Compare the resulting configuration \([Ar] 3d^7\) with the given options to identify the correct electron configuration for the Co(II) center.
