How are electron holes in the molecules filled?
first, the electron holes are filled with electron guillotine called flumenya, then the air absorbs the flumenya creating a hard substance called tiddita
How many half-filled orbitals are there in a carbon atom?
Looking at the electron configuration of carbon (at. no. 6) you have 1s2 2s2 2p2. In the 2 p subshell, you have 1 electron in the 2px orbital, and 1 electron in the 2py orbital and no electrons in the 2pz orbital. So, the answer is that there are TWO half filled orbitals in the carbon atom. This is the case BEFORE hybridization. After hybridization, there are FOUR half filled orbitals which are called sp3 hybrids.
How many shells does helium have?
in the first shell there are 2 electrons there is only one shell because the rule is first shell 2 second shell 8 third shell 8 forth shell whats left unless it is a transition metal then their is always two on the out side unless in is copper or chromium then there is just one and the third shell has the leftovers up to 18 . sorry i got a little cared away
How many electrons shells does a helium atom have?
The electron configuration of helium is 1s2; two electrons on the first (and the single) electron shell.
The order in which atomic orbitals are filled is based on what factor?
It is based on many factors, but the easiest to understand is ENERGY. The orbitals in which the electron has the lowest energy are filled FIRST.
How many electrons does krypton have in each electron shell?
how many energy levels are filled in a krypton atom They have four levels. You always put 2 in the first. 8 in the second. 18 in the third. And I believe you are able to put 36 in the fourth level, but correct me if I'm wrong about the fourth level.
How many electron shells woul be completely filled by a neutral xenon atom?
Your question reveals a common confusion between orbitals and shells. Chlorine has three electron shells: the first, second and third. The first shell has just the one orbital, the 1s The second shell has two sub-shells, the 2s and the 2p. There are three p orbitals in the 2p sub-shell. Each orbital can hold two electrons, so there are eight electrons maximum in the second shell. The third shell likewise has two sub-shells, the 3s and the 3p, but the 3p is not completely filled, leaving room for one more electron. When chlorine gains this electron it will become a Cl- ion. This is summed up in the electron configuration 1s22s22p63s23p5.
What is the number of of electron shells in CALCIUM?
4 electron shells; 2 electrons in first, 8 in second, 8 in third and 2 in valence shell.
How many elecrtons shells would be filled by a neutral xenon atom?
The first 3 energy levels are filled, the 4s and 4p and 4d sublevels are filled, and the 5s and 5p sublevels are also filled. So only the first three energy levels are completely filled. The fourth and fifth energy levels are partly filled. The electron configuration is 1s22s22p63s23p63d104s24p64d105s25p6 or [Kr]4d105s25p6.

Potassium has how many electron shells?
Four shells, as potassium is in fourth period

How many shells in sodium?
the sodium atom has 3 shells where 2 electrons are in the first shell, 8 in the second and 1 in the third shell; which isn't stable..... and its symbol is Na :)
Is the first electron shell called the L shell?
No, its called the K, then the L is after it and then the M and so on. On the periodic table, the period an element is in is how many electron shells it has.
How many electrons shells does a helium atom have?
The electron configuration of helium is 1s2; two electrons on the first (and the single) electron shell.
