Describe 1 way an element can achieve a stable electron configuration?
. Through the transfer of electrons between atoms
How can metal elements achieve a stable electron-shell structure like those of the noble gases?
Covalent bonding
How did the discovery of the noble gases contribute to today's understandings of the structure of the atom?
Noble gases explain the stable behavior of any element and hence enhances the concept of atom's structure.
What is one way an element can achieve a stable electron con๏ฌguration?
By losing or gaining electrons so that it's Valence level is full. This turns it in to a Stable Ion with either a positive or negative charge.
How element form ions that have a stable atomic structure like that found in a noble gas?
Ions are formed when elements gain or lose electrons.
How does an atom of a representative element achieve its most stable state?
The valence shell must be completed to eight electrons.

Which element is a stable element?
A stable element is any non-radioactive element. All elements before element atomic number 84 (not including 84) - Polonium (Po) are stable elements.

Which of the elements is stable?
a stable element is an element which have been able to complet its octect rule, i.e the electron of its outermost shell is complet, this is what is called a stable element
How element form ions that have a stable atomic structure like that found in a noble gas?
Ions are formed when elements gain or lose electrons.
How do elements acquire a stable atomic structure like that found in a noble gas?
Atoms can achieve a stable outer electron arrangement by gaining, losing or sharing valence electrons with other atoms or ions.
Is element fluorine stable?
Fluorine is a stable element.yes.
Why is the structure of an atom stable?
The structure of all atoms is not necessarily stable. Hence we have radio-activity.
How Carbon has d orbital?
Electron Orbitals can form a hybrid in order to achieve a more stable element: sp, sp2, sp3, sp3d, sp3d2
