Sulfur has six electrons in its third electron shell.
That is a total of 16 electrons. Assuming that this is a neutral atom, the number of electrons = the number of protons. Therefore, this atom has 16 protons, which is its atomic number. The element with atomic number 16 is sulfur.
The first shell can have 2 electrons, the second shell has 8 electrons and the third shell has 8 electron also. No matter what, electron fill up the first shell and then move into the next shell and then the next one. To answer the question, the first shell would have 2 electron and then the second shell would have six.
An electron in the third shell has more energy than the electron in the second shell.
3 shells; 2 electrons in the first shell, 8 in the second shell and 8 in the third shell.
4 electron shells; 2 electrons in first, 8 in second, 8 in third and 2 in valence shell.
Iron has 26 electrons in total. the first electron shell has 2 electrons, the second electron shell has 8 electrons, the third electron shell has 14 electrons and the final shell of iron(Fe) has 2 electrons.
That is a total of 16 electrons. Assuming that this is a neutral atom, the number of electrons = the number of protons. Therefore, this atom has 16 protons, which is its atomic number. The element with atomic number 16 is sulfur.
Sulfur
firstly the protons are in the nucleus of an atom. there are 16 protons there. the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons. the electron arrangement is as follows: first shell-2 electrons second shell - 8 electrons third shell - 6 electrons this can also be written as 2,8,6
Sulfur
In case of sulphur there are 3 energy levels.The first one contains 2 electrons,the second one contains 8 electrons and the third one contains 6 electrons.So the atomic number is 16 and valence electron/number of electrons in the outermost shell is 6.
3s^2 3p^6 3d^10 18 electron altogether in the third shell.
No, its two electrons in the first, 8 electrons in the 2nd and 3rd shell if its stable
Sodium is in the third group in the periodic table. It meens that sodium has three shell. First shell - 2 electrons, second shell - 8 electrons, third shell (outer energy level) - 1 electron.
There are 12 electrons in the electron shell of magnesium, the same number as protons. As for the outermost shell, it would be 3s2, meaning there are two electrons in the third "s" shell.
The first shell can have 2 electrons, the second shell has 8 electrons and the third shell has 8 electron also. No matter what, electron fill up the first shell and then move into the next shell and then the next one. To answer the question, the first shell would have 2 electron and then the second shell would have six.
An electron in the third shell has more energy than the electron in the second shell.
