Want this question answered?
it has 2 because the first energy level has 1
Yes.
noble gases
no. of electrons to fill an energy level = 2n2. = 2x32 = 18
it has 7 valence electrons, which is the number of electrons on the outer energy level, so it needs 7.
Nitrogen would have three bonds in order to fill its valence shell.
I believe it's 2 bonds if I'm reading the question correctly.
to fill their outer most energy level
8 electrons
Halogens
6 electrons
Hydrogen and Helium both only need two valence electrons to fill their outer shell.
An atom wants to fill all the electron spaces in its farthest out Energy Level Orbital. The number of available spaces in the outer energy level orbital determine how many times it is available to bond.
It needs to lose one electron so that it can have 8 electrons in its outer orbital
Carbon needs 4 covalent bonds to fill its outer shell.
Look at the first element on the periodic table. The first energy level holds only two electrons, so Helium has filled its outer energy level. Atoms with an outer energy level that is not fill will fill it up by bonding with other atoms and sharing electrons.
it has 2 because the first energy level has 1
