If an element is chemically active what is the state of its outer electron shell?
The key to "happiness" for an atom is a full outer electron shell. (The outer electron shell is called the valence shell.) There are two conditions that cause a shell not to be full. Either it has only an electron or two (or three) in the outer electron shell or it's short an electron or two in that outer shell. The direct answer to the question is that if an element is chemically active, its outer electron shell is incomplete or is not full.
How many electrons does does nitrogen and bromine have in the outer shell?
Nitrogen has five electrons in its outer shell and bromine has seven in its outer shell.
How many electrons in the outer level are there in the nitrogen group?
Outer electrons, or Valence Electrons, for nitrogen is 5 electrons. The first electron level requires 2 electrons, an electron pair, to fill it and move on to the next level. Nitrogen has 7 electrons, so 7-2=5.
How many electrons nitrogen has in its outer energy level and how many does bromine have?
Nitrogen has 5 electrons in its outer shell, and Bromine has 7 electrons in its outer shell.
How many electron are on the outer shell of a manganese?
manganese have 2 electrons in their outer most shell

How many electrons does does nitrogen and bromine have in the outer shell?
Nitrogen has five electrons in its outer shell and bromine has seven in its outer shell.
How many electron pairs are there in the outer shell of krypton?
This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.
How many electrons in the outer level are there in the nitrogen group?
Outer electrons, or Valence Electrons, for nitrogen is 5 electrons. The first electron level requires 2 electrons, an electron pair, to fill it and move on to the next level. Nitrogen has 7 electrons, so 7-2=5.
Does nitrogen give or take electrons?
Nitrogen is a nonmetal with 5 valance electrons, which tends to receive three electrons to complete it outer electron shell.
Does lithium have a full outer shell?
no it only has 1 electron in the outer shell
How can you get an ion of bromine?
Bromine has 7 electrons in its outer shell and needs to gain one electron to have a full outer shell and become an ion. It will gain this electron from an atom that has one electron in its outer shell such as Lithium or Sodium.
What happens to the electrons in the outer shell when the alkali metals react with other elements?
the alkali metals have 1 electron in their outer most shell. in order to obtain a full outer shell they have to lose this electron. so when they react with another metal they lose this electron and the outer most shell.
How many electrons nitrogen has in its outer energy level and how many does bromine have?
Nitrogen has 5 electrons in its outer shell, and Bromine has 7 electrons in its outer shell.
How many electrons are in the outer shell of cobalt?
There is one electron on cobalts outer shell.
How many electrons does nitrogen need to fill its outer shell?
One electron is needed.
How many electrons does sodium have in its outer most shell?
Sodium is in the third group in the periodic table. It meens that sodium has three shell. First shell - 2 electrons, second shell - 8 electrons, third shell (outer energy level) - 1 electron.
