The ground state is the lowest energy state of an atom while the excited state is any state that is higher than the ground state. Since the ground state configuration of Ga is 2-8-18-3 then the electron configuration of Ga in an excited state is represented by 2-8-17-4. In order to achieve the excited state an electron has to be promoted.
