           Summary: desired feature: ground state electron configuration
           Product: kalzium
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian stable
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kalzium at kde.org
        ReportedBy: krishnamyneni at bellsouth.net


Version:           1.4.6 (using KDE 3.5.10)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Debian stable Packages

Provide an option to show the ground state electron configuration for an
element, e.g.

H (Hydrogen) 1s(1) 
He (Helium)  1s(2) 
Li (Lithium) 1s(2)2s(2)
:
Cr (Chromium) 1s(2)2s(2)2p(6)3s(2)3p(6)3d(5)4s(1)
etc.

Usually, the numbers in parentheses are written as superscripts, and their sum
is equal to the number of electrons in the neutral atom (i.e. the atomic
number).  This information would be very helpful to a high-school chemistry
student, or one at a more advanced level. The shell filling order is also
non-obvious once you get past the element argon.
