Neutrons are in nucleus. They are never in orbitals
There are about 33 isotopes of arsenic. Only one of them is stable, and that's 75 As 33. All the other isotopes are synthetic.
As all atoms do, arsenic has one nucleus. That nucleus consists of 33 protons and 42 neutrons.
Arsenic is a non metal element. There are 33 electrons in a single atom.
Arsenic atoms typically consist of 33 protons, 33 electrons, and varying numbers of neutrons depending on the isotope. Each subatomic particle has its own specific role in determining the properties and behavior of the arsenic atom.
That atom is Arsenic. It would have 33 electrons.
Arsenic has 5 electrons in its p orbitals. Each p orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, and arsenic has 3 p orbitals (px, py, and pz), so the total number of electrons in arsenic's p orbitals is 3 orbitals * 2 electrons/orbital = 6 electrons.
42 neutrons Think of it this way: Arsenic 75. The number of protons and electrons of an element are always the same. Well, we obviously know that there are 33 electrons in arsenic from the periodic table, and therefore we have 33 protons. So, to find the number of neutrons is simple. The number of neutrons and protons added together will equal the mass number (75). So it is basic algebra. You want to think logically. Take75 (your mass number) and subtract 33 (the number of protons) and you will get 42. Hope that helps!
To produce an arsenic-75 nucleus from an iron-56 nucleus, the iron must absorb neutrons and undergo a series of transformations. Iron-56 has 26 protons and 30 neutrons, while arsenic-75 has 33 protons and 42 neutrons. This means that to reach arsenic-75, the iron-56 nucleus needs to absorb enough neutrons to increase its neutron count to 42 while also changing the number of protons through beta decay. Therefore, iron-56 would need to absorb approximately 7 neutrons during the process.
Adding an electron to an orbital does not necessarily mean adding a neutron. Neutrons are not directly related to the number of electrons in an atom. Neutrons are added to the nucleus of an atom independently of the electrons in the electron cloud.
Fluorine: 1 singly occupied orbital Iron: 2 singly occupied orbitals Calcium: 0 singly occupied orbitals Arsenic: 3 singly occupied orbitals Aluminum: 1 singly occupied orbital Lithium: 1 singly occupied orbital
Arsenic has 8 levels of energy.
(Symbol As) A highly poisonous metallic element having three allotropic forms, yellow, black, and gray, of which the brittle, crystalline gray is the most common. Arsenic and its compounds are used in insecticides, weed killers, solid-state doping agents, and various alloys. Atomic number 33; atomic weight 74.922; valence 3, 5. Gray arsenic melts at 817°C (at 28 ATM pressure), sublimes at 613°C, and has a specific gravity of 5.73.
