∙ 8y agoTwo electrons occupying the same orbital in the same atom must have opposite spins - one spins clockwise, the other counterclockwise. This requirement is known as Hund's rule.

Paired electrons in the same atom will differ because of their?
spin
What subatomic particle contributes alomst no weight to an atom?
The subatomic particles that contribute most almost no weight to an atom are electrons at various energy levels. Isotopes of the same element differ from each other only by the number of neutrons.
What do you need to build a neutral atom?
The atom needs to have the same number of electrons as it has protons.
Which element has the highest number of electrons?
Because an atom of element has the same number of electrons as of protons and the number of protons in an atom is the same as the atomic number of the atom, the answer to this is whichever element has the highest atomic number yet synthesized.
How can you calculate the number of electrons in an atom?
For a neutral atom they must have equal numbers of protons and electrons. The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom of an element. Find the atomic number by looking at the periodic table of elements.
Paired electrons in the same atom will differ because of their?
spin
Do the number of neutrons for an ion differ from its neutral atom?
no. it will be same. only the number of electrons will differ
How does a negative ion differ from an uncharge atom of the same element?
the ion has a greater number of electrons
How do valence electrons differ from the other electrons in an atom are the outermost energy?
They do not differ in any way, except they are the 1 to 8 electrons in the highest energy ground state orbitals of that atom.
Why does an isotope have the same chemical properties as a typical atom?
Almost all the chemical properties of an atom are determined by the valence shell electrons or in general, by the no of electrons present in the atom. Since in an isotope and a general atom, no. of electrons is same, therefore they have similar chemical properties. Isotopes differ in atomic mass only and that is due to extra neutrons.
How does an s2- ion differ from an electrically neutral sulfur atom?
All ions differ from an electrically neutral atom in that they are missing or have gained one or more electrons. A S2- atom has 2 less electrons than a neutral atom.
Do the atomic number for an ion differ from its neutral atom?
no. atomic number will be same as the number of protons will not change for an ion and its neutral atom, but the number of electrons will vary.
Do the number of electrons for an ion differ from its neutral atom?
no it doesnt
What do all of one element have in common?
The same number of protons (the atomic number),(the number of neutrons in the nucleus may differ from atom to atom ) The fact that atoms of an elemnt have the same number of protons means that in the neutral atom the number of electrons is the same - and therefore the chemistry is the same.
How do the atoms of one isotope differ from those of other isotopes of the same element?
Primarily, isotopes differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus. Secondarily, because some combinations of protons and neutrons produce an unstable nucleus, they may differ by being radioactive.
How do isotopes of the same element differ with regards to subatomic particles?
Same number of protons; different number of neutrons. The number of electrons will also be the same, assuming a neutral atom.
How does an atom of iron differ in structure from an atom of gold?
The number of protons, neutrons ad electrons is different.
