Where are the electrons with less energy most likely located?
It's in the outermost shell of the electron.
What is it called when electrons in the inner energy levels block the attraction between the nucleus and the valence electrons?
nuclear shielding
The energy from the electrons moving down the chain is used to move H ions across the?
Energy from the electrons move down the chain is used to move H plus ions across the inner membrane. H plus ions move through channels of ATP synthase in the inner membrane.
How many electrons can be held in the innermost energy level of atoms?
Use the figure 2n2 where n = the shell number. There are many levels of shells, so "inner" is not a very specific term. If you mean "inner-most" shell however, then the answer would be two, since n = 1.
Why do different atoms produce different colors of light?
Atoms consist of neutrons, protons and electrons. The electrons form 'clouds' around the nuclei of atoms, and in general the nuclei consist of protons and neutrons. The electrons in the outer clouds have more energy than those in the inner clouds. When an electron 'falls' to a lower cloud it a packet of energy is released which might consist of light. Since the energy levels between the clouds vary between atoms the energies released when an electron falls vary from atom to atom. Frequency is equivalent to energy level, and frequency of light is equivalent to colour on the light spectrum.
What outermost electrons in an atom with the inner electrons of an atom in terms of energy.?
valence electrons
What are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom?
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom. The ones in the inner shell are known as core electrons.
Where are the electrons with less energy most likely located?
It's in the outermost shell of the electron.
What are the electrons in the outermost she'll of an atom called?
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom. The ones in the inner shell are known as core electrons.
What is the outer most energy level of an atom?
This is the valence shell and is involved in bonding e.g. the sharing or loss of electrons to form a molecule or giant structure. Inner shells do not take part in bonding though their shielding effect and repulsion does affect the loss and gain of electrons from this shell.
How many inner electrons does Br have?
A bromine atom has seven electrons in its outermost shell.
What part of an atom forms a chemical bond?
The electrons (especially the valence electrons)
Do electrons in the lowest energy level of an atom that determine how that atom reacts?
Electrons in the outer shell, also known as valance electrons, determine how an atom will react. To be more precise I should add that there are transition state elements whose reactivity is also influenced by some of the inner electrons as well.
Inner-shell electrons are electrons that?
inner shell electrons : the electrons that are not in the the highest occupied energy level .
Is Q the inner orbital for electrons?
No, Q is the outermost orbital. K is the first one.
How many inner electrons are in the element Oxygen?
Oxygen has 2 electrons in the innermost orbital and 6 in the outermost (valence) orbital.
What do the outermost electrons of an atom and inner electrons?
calculate the current due to revolution of electron in the outermost orbit of the Na atom, if the time period of revolution of electron is 2 micro second
