There are 3 electron shells in Aluminum. The first shell holds 2, the second shell holds 8, and the third shell holds 3. This equals 13, its Atomic Number. http://www.chem4kids.com/files/elements/013_shells.html

How many electrons are in the outer shell of aluminum?
Normally, three.
All atoms become stable when they have how many valence electrons?
Only when their outer shell is saturated>>>>>>>>>>>>
How many valence electrons are needed to achieve a full outer shell?
It depends, most atoms need 8 total valence electrons in their outer shell (some need 2). So subtract the number they have (determined by the group that the element is in) from 8 and that is how many they need to fill their outer shell!
How many electrons are in the outer energy level of the atoms of alkali earth metals?
There are two electrons on the outer shell which means they are pretty reactive. (make bonding easier)
How many outer shell are in calcium?
The outer shell of calcium has two electrons.
How many outer and inner shells does aluminum have?
No it doesn't... Aluminum has 3 extra electrons in the outer shell
How many atoms are in the outer Shell of carbon?
there are four electrons on the outer shell of carbon..
How many electrons are in the outer shell of aluminum?
Normally, three.
How many atoms in the outer shell of a electrons?
Only two electrons.
How many valence electrons will most elements have after forming an ion?
Atoms often form ions by losing or gaining enough electrons to end up with a full outer shell. How many electrons are in a full outer shell for most atoms? Don't know? How about Googling full outer shell?
A total of how many electrons are needed to fill the outer shell of most atoms?
There is a total of 8 electrons that are needed to fill outer shell of most atoms. An atom is the smallest unit of matter.
How many electrons are needed to fill the outer shell of most atoms?
8
What do electrons have to do with chemical bonds?
Each element has shells of electrons and they are limited to how many can be shared in the outer shell. This lets us know what and how many atoms can combine with it. Hydrogen has the need for one electron in its outer shell. Oxygen has the need for two more electrons in its outer shell. Therefore, 2 hydrogen atoms can combine with oxygen.
All atoms become stable when they have how many valence electrons?
Only when their outer shell is saturated>>>>>>>>>>>>
How many electrons does each atom desire?
Atoms do not actually have desires as such, although the metaphor can be useful. Atoms are more stable when they have a full outer electron shell. The smaller atoms, hydrogen, helium, lithium, and beryllium, can obtain a full outer shell with only two electrons in it. The heavier atoms require 8 electrons to have a full outer shell. That is known as the octet rule (an octet is a set of eight).
When a covalent bond forms between two atoms how many atoms have a full outer shell of electrons?
because u suck
How many atoms are stable with valence electrons?
you would need a full outer shell so 8
