An atom is stable when it?
it can be stable by completing their octet & minimizing their energy
What is the number of electrons needed for stability in the groups of the periodic table?
They r noble gases which have stable valance shell and grotp no. 18
How many electrons are required in the outer energy level for most elements to be stable?
The noble gases is the most stable group of elements. They have their outer electron energy levels full, but the number of electrons vary according to which noble gas it is. They are group 18 on the periodic table.
How many electrons can the outer level of an atom hold?
an atom has different energy orbitals: s, p, d, and f. each orbital can hold two electrons. the outside energy or highest energy levels of electrons is called the valence shell or valence electrons. for an atom to be stable it wants the electron configuration for the valence shell to be "s2, p6." to answer your question the outer level of an atom can hold 8 electrons. it is called the valence shell.
How many electrons are needed in the outer energy levels for the atom to be stable?
Stability isn't determined by the first energy level. The only atom with less than two is hydrogen. It is a very stable atom...reactive in that it will attach to anything, but it will always be hydrogen. The atoms that readily decay (the radioactive ones) all have full first orbitals.
How many electrons are needed in the outer energy level to make H stable?
Only 1 electron needed to make H stable.
What is it called when an atom has an outer energy level is filled with electrons?
it is called complete or completely stable
How many many electrons are needed in the outer energy levels of most atoms for the atom to be chemically stable?
Generally speaking, it would be 8 electrons, but there are many exceptions.
How many electrons are need in the outer energy levels of most atoms for the atom to be chemically stable?
8 are traditionally needed in the valence shell.
An atom is stable when it?
it can be stable by completing their octet & minimizing their energy
How many electrons of the most stable have in there outer energy level?
The most stable atoms/ions have 8 electrons in their outermost shell.
What is the number of electrons needed for stability in the groups of the periodic table?
They r noble gases which have stable valance shell and grotp no. 18
What is the process of losing or gaining electrons to become stable?
The process of losing or gaining electrons to become stable is called ionization.
How many electrons are required in the outer energy level for most elements to be stable?
The noble gases is the most stable group of elements. They have their outer electron energy levels full, but the number of electrons vary according to which noble gas it is. They are group 18 on the periodic table.
How do atoms get stable outer energy level?
They share their valence electrons
What is a Adam when it's outer energy level is filled with electrons?
Stable.
Which group has a stable number of electrons in their outer most energy level?
All the noble gases Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon and Radon have a stable octet of electrons in their outer energy level.
