Breakdown:
Ar: 18 electrons -> 18 protons
4s23d104p6 = (2+10+6) = 18 electrons -> 18 protons
=> Element has 36 protons.
=> Krypton (Kr)
Ar: 18 electrons -> 18 protons

=> Krypton (Kr)
Explanation:
It is known that atomic number of argon is 18 and the given element contains a total of 36 electrons in its ground state.
As it has completely filled shells with 8 valence electrons which means that the given element must be a noble gas.
Element with atomic number 36 is Krypton and it is also a noble gas.
therefore, we can conclude that element that has a ground state electronic configuration of [tex][Ar]4s^2 3d^10 4p^6[/tex] is krypton.
