Does a star's spectrum show all of its elements?

The spectrum shows:the "blackbody radiation - a continuous spectrum that is related to the temperature of the surface of the starlines that are related to levels of energy that electrons jump, releasing photons, and"dark" lines which show energy levels of electrons belonging to elements in the atmosphere or the intervening space which block some radiation


Which elements have 3 energy levels with only 4 electrons in the last energy level?

oxygen


Why some of the periods have different numbers of elements?

The early periods have less elements because they are filling up energy levels which hold only a few electrons. The later periods contain elements with electrons in levels with a greater capacity.


How many electrons do beryllium and magnesium have in there outer energy levels?

Beryllium and magnesium have two electrons in their outermost energy level, as do all Group 2 elements.

Niels Bohr


How are atoms and energy related?

Vibration is related to energy. Or on a more complex level, atoms posses electrons, which in the bohr model, are at different energy "levels"


What elements neutral atom has 2 energy levels with 2 electrons in the outer layer?

If by energy levels you mean shells then Beryllium (Be) is in the second group and the second Period.


How are elements in a vertical column related to each other?

They have similar physical and chemical properties. This is due to the fact that they have the same number of valence electrons, just in subsequently higher energy levels.


What shows the placement of elements with similar electrons configurations in columns in order of their increasing energy levels?
