It's actually 6 not 2. 2 I believe, followed by D which holds 4, and F which holds 7.
It hold 6 thre p orbital (Px Py Pz) and each one hold two so total is six electron can p orbital
Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share electrons. Let's take hydrogen for example. To be the most "happy" atoms want their outermost orbital full of electrons. Hydrogen has only one electron in its 1s orbital, but the 1s orbital can hold two electrons. Hydrogen wants two electrons to be "happy" so it will do what it takes to get them. If a hydrogen atom bumps into another hydrogen atom they can both become "happy" as each atom will share its electron with the other atom, giving each a full outermost orbital with the help of the other atom's electron. This is what creates the bond in covalent bond as the hydrogen atoms are "happier" together with a full orbital than they would be with a half-full orbital apart.
one is spin up one is spin down, there are no other possibilities.
The bohr diagram is the diagram of the electrons on the orbital layers of the nucleus of an atom. for potassium, you would put 2 electrons on the first layer, 8 on the second layer, and 9 on the third layer. This is because the atomic number of Potassium (K) is 19, therefore has 19 protons and 19 electrons. umm no sorry... tht is wrong dude, you can only have 2 electrons on the first orbital, 8 on the second orbital, and 8 on the third orbital not nine! Actually, The first one is right. Yout can put on a maximum 16 electrons on the third ring, not 8. and if i was worng for some odd reason, you can take that extra electron and put in on the next ring
The electrons have different energy levels.
Any orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons
It hold 6 thre p orbital (Px Py Pz) and each one hold two so total is six electron can p orbital
there are two electons in the s sublevel. It is the number of electrons that fit in the first orbital around an atom.
In an atom, electrons are in "shells", the first shell is around the center of the atom and holds a maximum of 2 electrons. Each subsequent shell out, will hold a maximum of 8 electrons. there is no maximum number of shells.
There can only be 2 electrons in each single orbital, and they will be on opposite sides of the electron cloud (orbital).
2. The S sub-shell has one orbital and an orbital can hold a max of 2 electrons.
8 electrons. The second energy level (n=2) has 4 orbitals. One s orbital and three p orbitals. Each orbital can hold 2 electrons of opposite spin.
8 electrons
Electrons exist in the electron cloud that surrounds the nucleus of an atom. This cloud is made up of the various orbitals that hold the electrons. Orbitals are regions of space in which the probability of finding an electron is the highest. The electrons orbit the nucleus in these orbitals and can move from one orbital to another as they gain or lose energy. 1s Orbital: This orbital is closest to the nucleus and can hold up to two electrons. 2s Orbital: This orbital is farther away from the nucleus and can hold up to two electrons. 2p Orbitals: These orbitals are even farther away from the nucleus and can hold up to six electrons. 3s Orbital: This orbital is farthest away from the nucleus and can hold up to two electrons. 3p Orbitals: These orbitals are even farther away from the nucleus and can hold up to six electrons. 3d Orbitals: These orbitals are the farthest away from the nucleus and can hold up to ten electrons.These orbitals are filled in a specific order with the 1s orbital being filled first then the 2s 2p 3s 3p and finally the 3d orbitals. The electrons in the outermost orbitals are called valence electrons and are responsible for the chemical properties of the atom.
The 2p sub-level can hold a maximum of 6 electrons. The 2p sub-level is divided into 2px, 2py and 2pz. Each of those orbitals can hold a maximum of 2 electrons. There are 3 of them and thus 6 total for the 2p sub-level.
ionic bond
2 electrons is the maximum number for an single orbital.
