        });
    }

You can't navigate to a particular tab on a record page in Lightning. This is not yet supported in Lightning.

However, if your requirement is that user should always navigate to a particular tab whenever Account(or other objects) is opened from whatever source(list view, global search, link, custom Aura/LWC component), you can make the tab as the 'default' one by editing the record page.

If its not the requirement then I am afraid you will not be able to achieve it.
