What best describes the energy possessed by electrons?
All electrons within the same energy level have the same energy.
Does all the electrons in an atom have similar amounts of energy?
If it exists at any temperature above absolute zero, -273C, it must have at least kinetic energy. Near any other charge, which it will be in any realistic consideration, it will also have potential energy.
Is the disitance of an electron all the same in one atom?
No. Lower energy levels and their electrons are closer to the nucleus than higher energy levels and their electrons.
Does an electron have the same amount of enery in all orbitals?
All of the orbitals in the same energy sublevel (s, p, d, f) have the same amount of energy. For example, each of the 3p orbitals have the same energy and all of the electrons in the 3p orbitals have the same energy.
What do all the elements in a row of the periodic table have in common?
They all have the same number of core electrons

Photo energy is the same for all wavelengths of light?
False

What element that has the same number of electrons in its outer energy level as silicon does?
Carbon and Germanium They all have 4 electrons in their outer orbital
How do electrons in the same atom differ?
The electrons have different energy levels.
All electrons orbit the nucleus of an atom at the same level. True or false?
False. It is wrong since the electrons are arranged in different energy levels.
Why is it that all of the sub shells in a given shell have the same energy in the hydrogen atom whereas in a many-electron atom the sub shells in a given shell do not have the same energy?
The hydrogen atom only has one energy level (shell). The first energy level also contains only one sublevel, 1s sublevel (subshell), which can only hold two electrons. When you get to the second energy level in the second period on the periodic table, it has two sublevels, the 2s and the 2p sublevels. Both of the electrons in the 2s sublevel have the same energy. The 2p sublevel can hold 6 electrons. All of the electrons in the 2p sublevel have the same energy, which is higher than the energy in the 2s sublevel. So, as we move down the periods on the periodic table, we move from the first energy level to the seventh energy level. Each energy level contains specific numbers of sublevels, and all of the atoms within a particular sublevel have equal energy.
Elements in a group or family have similar properties?
Because groups/families determine how many valence electrons the element will have. Therefore, all the elements in a group/family have the same number of valence electrons Chemimal and Physical.
Do a valence electrons determine an electrons mass?
I'm not 100% certain what you were trying to ask, but I think the answer is "no". All electrons have the same rest mass.Valence electrons have higher energy (and therefore higher relativistic mass) than core electrons, if that's what you meant, but it's not a large factor; the difference in energy levels between valence electrons and core electrons even in large atoms is only a fraction of the electron's mass-equivalent energy.
What do all the elements in a row of the periodic table have in common?
They all have the same number of core electrons
