How many electrons does a complete valance shell hold?
A complete valence shell typically holds 8 electrons. However, for elements in the first two rows of the periodic table, the valence shell can hold a maximum of 2 electrons in the first shell and 8 electrons in the second shell.
Generally a complete valence shell holds how many electrons.?
Generally, a compete valence shell holds EIGHT electrons.
Which element has 4 valance electrons in its l shell?
The element with 4 valence electrons in its L shell is carbon. Carbon has an atomic number of 6, which means it has 6 electrons. These electrons are distributed in two shells: the first shell (K shell) holds 2 electrons, and the second shell (L shell) holds the remaining 4 electrons, making carbon a key element in organic chemistry.
What makes a group not reactive on the periodic table?
A full octet, valance shell. A valance shell with eight electrons, such as the Nobel gases have, doe not need to donate or accept electrons into or out of the valance shell to be stable.
Outer shell electrons are known as?
Valance electrons
What has 5 electrons in its outer shell?
If you are talking about the valance electrons any elements in group 5 on the periodic table will have 5 valance electrons.
How many electrons are in the valence shell of He?
There are two electrons in the valance shell of helium. Since this is the first shell, it is filled by two electrons.
Does oxygen give its electrons away?
No, oxygen is a strong electron acceptor and accepts two electrons into it's valance shell to complete it's octet.
Does nitrogen give or take electrons?
Nitrogen is a nonmetal with 5 valance electrons, which tends to receive three electrons to complete it outer electron shell.
How many electrons does the valance shell in hydrogen have?
1
Do ions have an unusual number of electrons?
Cations donate electrons from their valance shell, have less, to reach their octet state. Anions accept electrons into their valance shell, have more, to reach their octet state.
The electrons found in an atoms outeer shell are often called electrons?
Valance electrons.
