What is the number of electrons that can occupy the first shell of an atom?
The first shell can hold two electrons only.
How many electrons go in the first shell of oxygen?
In the first shell there are two electrons and in the second shell there are six electrons, but only the electrons in the second (outer) shell are valence electrons.
What is the configuration of an atom with 31 electrons?
the first shell: 2 electrons The second shell: 8 electrons The third shell: 18 electrons The fourth shell: 3 electrons
What is the maximum number of electrons in the second electron shell?
8 (just in the second shell) but if you're counting all of the electrons, including the first shell, then there are 10 electrons all together. Eight Electrons are the maximum.
What determines whether or not an atom reacts with other atoms is it the electrons on the first shell or the second?
valence electrons or the electrons on the outer most shell.
What is the number of electrons that can occupy the second shell of an atom?
The second shell can hold eight electrons.
What is the number of electrons that can occupy the first shell of an atom?
The first shell can hold two electrons only.
What is the maximum number of electrons in the first shell?
2 electrons are found in the first electron shell.
How many electrons go in the first shell of oxygen?
In the first shell there are two electrons and in the second shell there are six electrons, but only the electrons in the second (outer) shell are valence electrons.
An atom that has 3 electrons in its second shell and a filled first shell will?
lose 3 electrons from its second shell
How many electrons can the second shell of an atom hold?
First Shell always has 2 electrons. Second shell onwards can have up to a maximum of 8 electrons.
What is the configuration of an atom with 31 electrons?
the first shell: 2 electrons The second shell: 8 electrons The third shell: 18 electrons The fourth shell: 3 electrons
How many electrons do silicon atoms have?
14 electrons. 2 electrons in the first shell, 8 electrons in second shell, and 4 electrons in the valence shell.
What are the maximum number of electrons found in the first shell and second shell?
First orbital can be occupied by a total of 2 electrons and the second orbital can be occupied by a total of 8 electrons. 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 ( what element is this ? )
What eleme has 2 electrons in the first shell and 8 in the second and 6 in the third?
What element has 2 electrons in the first shell and 8 in the second and 6 in the third
What is the electron arrangement in a boron atom?
2 electrons in the first shell then 3 electrons in the second shell
2 Electron in firsat shell 8 electrons in second shell and 6 electrons in third shell?
No, its two electrons in the first, 8 electrons in the 2nd and 3rd shell if its stable
