How many electron are needed to fill the outer energy level of sulfur?
Sulfur has 6 electrons in its outer energy level. This means it needs 2 more electrons to fill its outer energy level, for a total of 8 electrons.
How many electrons are needed to fill the second outer energy level?
8 electrons
What is the number of electrons gained or lost to fill outer energy level of chlorine?
Chlorine has seven electrons in its outer energy level (valence shell). To achieve a full outer energy level, which requires eight electrons, chlorine needs to gain one electron. Therefore, chlorine typically gains one electron to fill its outer energy level and achieve stability.
Which atom does not need 8 electrons in it outer energy level to be stable?
Hydrogen is an atom that does not need 8 electrons in its outer energy level to be stable. Hydrogen only needs 2 electrons to fill its outer energy level.
What two atoms will have their outer energy level filled with two electrons?
Helium and neon will have their outer energy level filled with two electrons. Helium has 2 electrons in its only energy level, while neon has 8 electrons in its second energy level.
How many electrons does Sodium need to fill it's outer energy level?
It needs to lose one electron so that it can have 8 electrons in its outer orbital
How can atoms with fewer than 8 valence electrons fill their outermost energy level Use either sulfur or magnesium to explain the process?
Atoms with fewer than 8 valence electrons can fill their outermost energy level by forming chemical bonds with other atoms. For example, magnesium can lose 2 electrons to achieve a full outer energy level, becoming a +2 cation. Conversely, sulfur can gain 2 electrons to fill its outer energy level, becoming a -2 anion. Both processes result in stable, filled outer energy levels for the atoms involved.
What Beryllium of electrons gained or lost to fill outer energy level?
Beryllium has two electrons in its outermost energy level (the 2s subshell). To achieve a full outer energy level, which requires a total of eight electrons (octet rule), beryllium typically loses these two outer electrons. By losing these electrons, beryllium achieves a stable electron configuration similar to that of the nearest noble gas, neon.
What is the number of electrons to fill fluorine?
it has 7 valence electrons, which is the number of electrons on the outer energy level, so it needs 7.
How many electrons does it take to fill outer shell of nitrogen?
Nitrogen has two energy levels. The first energy level contains two electrons. The second energy level contains five electrons. Number of Protons/Electrons: 7 Number of Neutrons: 7
How many electrons are required to completely fill the third energy level?
no. of electrons to fill an energy level = 2n2. = 2x32 = 18
How many electrons does astatine need to fill it's outer energy level?
Electron shells of astatine: 2, 8, 18, 32, 18, 7 (electrons/shell)
