Representative Elements
Orbitals don't contain elements. The elements each have specific orbitals based on the number of electrons it has. All of the elements have at least one s orbital. Hydrogen being the simplest element has one electron in the 1s orbital. The s orbital can contain a maximum of 2 electrons.
There are 7 different f-orbitals and each orbital can hold 2 electrons.
because they have the same number of electrons in their valence shell / orbitals.
Yes they do. Groups/Families tell the number of valence electrons (the number of electrons in the outermost energy level).
Representative Elements
What is the name of the collection of elements on the right side of the periodic table with electrons sequentially filling orbitals in their valence?
In theory all elements have all the orbitals. Zinc has electrons in four of them.
Its the s and p orbitals
period contain elements with electrons in s p d and f orbitals
The 3rd shell can contain 18 electrons. The elements that have a 3rd shell as the outer shell are the the elements in period 3, where the 3s and 3p orbitals are filled to a maximum of 8 electrons. The 3d orbitals are filled in the 4th period in the transition elements.
All atoms of all elements have electrons in the electron cloud (better known as orbitals). The concept of orbits (electrons moving in fixed paths) is now replaced by orbitals.
Orbitals don't contain elements. The elements each have specific orbitals based on the number of electrons it has. All of the elements have at least one s orbital. Hydrogen being the simplest element has one electron in the 1s orbital. The s orbital can contain a maximum of 2 electrons.
These elements to transition metals. The electrons are filled in the d-orbitals. Most of the elements have unpaired electrons and hence are paramagnetic.
It is C. i got lucky when i guess:)
They are in the same column.
The elements which falls under the group 16 has 4 electrons in its outer p orbital...
