How many inner shell electron does mendelevium have?

Mendelevium has seven electron shells.


Are the outer electron shells always filled first?

No. The inner shells are filled first.


Are electron shells and electron dots the same thing?

no. electron shells are just what contain the electrons. the inner most shell contains 2, then 8 and so on.


How are the inner shell electrons represent in a Lewis structure?

In a Lewis dot structure (also called an electron dot structure) there are no inner electrons and shells shown because Lewis dot structures are usually used to show bonds between elements, and the inner electrons are never usually involved with the bonding of atoms.


Does an electron in the third shell has more energy than in the first shell?

when electons are more closer to nucelus it has less energy. when they are away from nucleus they are more energetic. how far electons will be away from nucleus, more they can influence other atoms


What group does pure silver belong in and why?

It belongs to group 11. This is because it has a single electron in the p sub-shell and all inner shells are full.


How do the outer electrons in metal atoms differ from the outer electrons in nonmetal atoms?

Those electrons are called the valence electrons. They are the ones that can be transferred and form bonds with other atoms.


How does the location of the electron transport chain differ in eukaryotic and prokaryotes?

The Eukaryotes are located in the inner mitochondria and Prokaryotes same chain is in the cell membrane.


The attraction of the nucleus for the outer electrons in large atoms is lessened as a result of?

Its all called electron shielding.


What happens for an atomic emission of photons to occur?

Electrons fall from higher energy state to lower energy state in atoms. This can be from outer shells to empty spaces in inner shells or from outside the atom to an empty space in a shell.


How come it is that outer shell electrons participate in bonding and not the electrons that in other shells?

Inner shells of electrons are always full and cannot accept any additional electrons. Also, they can not generally lose electrons because the energy require to remove an electron from an inner shell is generally too high to be achieved in a chemical reaction.
