Why are there four energy levels in iron?

It is all to do with the Aufbau and Pauli exclusion principle. The best way to illustrate is to fill up a bus with single people. They will tend to fill the empty seats first and then start sitting two people to a seat. In the same way due to energy considerations, an orbital can only have a maximum of two spin paired electrons in it. Anymore is energetically unfavorable. The same is true with each energy level. Each one can only hold a certain maximum of electrons. 1 = 2 2 = 8 3 =18 4 = 32 So with iron which has 26 electrons, they need 4 energy levels to fit these electrons in.


What were the four principles of the bohr model?

The four principles of the Bohr model are: electrons orbit the nucleus in fixed energy levels or shells, electrons can jump between different energy levels by either absorbing or emitting photons, angular momentum of electrons is quantized, and the frequency of emitted or absorbed light is directly related to the energy difference between electron levels.


What is the electron arrangement for calcium?

The electron arrangement for calcium is 2,8,8,2. This means that calcium has 20 electrons arranged in four energy levels, with 2 electrons in the first energy level, 8 electrons in the second and third energy levels, and 2 electrons in the fourth energy level.

Where would you find the six electrons in an atom of carbon?

The arrangement of electrons in carbon is 1S2 2S2 2P2. Two electrons are in the first energy level, four in the second.1s2 2s2 2p2


What is the number of energy shells in a zinc atom?

There are four energy shells. The levels go: 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p6, 4s2, 3d10. This is because there are 30 electrons.


How many energy levels does an atom of calcium have based on the bohr model?

An atom of calcium in the Bohr model has four energy levels. These energy levels are designated by the quantum numbers n=1, 2, 3, and 4, corresponding to the first, second, third, and fourth energy levels, respectively.


How many electrons can be held in the first 4 energy levels?

== Answer== Generally, each sub-shell has its own energy. The sub-shells, listed in order of energy with the number of orbitals in that sub-shell, with the number of electrons each one occupies, are:1s: 1 orbital, 2 electrons2s: 1 orbital, 2 electrons2p: 3 orbitals, 6 electrons3s: 1 orbital, 2 electrons3p: 3 orbitals, 6 electrons4s: 1 orbital, 2 electrons3d: 5 orbitals, 10 electrons4p: 3 orbitals, 6 electronsetc.So, in the first four separate energy levels or sub-shell (1s, 2s, 2p, and 3s) there are 2 + 2+ 6 + 2 = 12 electrons. Note that in these first four sub-shells there are 6 orbitals (with 2 electrons each).


How many energy levels does bromine have?

Bromine has FOUR energy Levels.


How many energy levels are in nickel?

Nickel has five energy levels. These energy levels correspond to the orbitals in which electrons can be found around the nickel nucleus. Each energy level can hold a specific number of electrons based on the rules of quantum mechanics.
