How many protons on the third shell of a sodium atom?
The protons are in the nucleus. It's the electrons that are in the "shells" around the nucleus. There's just one electron in the third shell of the sodium atom.
How many of protons and electrons in each shell of 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
How many protons are on the first shell of an atom?
The first shell of an atom can hold a maximum of 2 electrons. Since the number of protons in an atom is equal to the number of electrons in a neutral atom, there can be a maximum of 2 protons in the first shell.
What is the nuclear charge in the 4th shell of an argon atom?
The nuclear charge in the 4th shell of an argon atom is +18, as argon has 18 protons in its nucleus. The nuclear charge is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
An atom has 2 electrons in its first shell and 8 in its secound shell its nucleus has 10 protons and 11 neutrons this atom is a?
An isotope of Neon.
Why is it that ''the central core of the atom is called the shell it is made up of protons and neutrons'' is considered not to be correct?
The central core of an atom is called the nucleus, not the shell.
An atom of chlorine has several valence electrons in its what A nucleus Bfirst shell C second shell D third shell?
Third Shell
How many electrons are present in the outer shell of an atom with an atomic number of 14 and an atomic weight of 29?
Atomic number is the number of protons. In a neutral atom, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. So, in your example, the number of electrons in this atom is 14. The first energy shell can take 2 electrons, the second energy shell can take 8 electrons, and the third energy shell can take 18 electrons. If there are 14 total electrons, 10 would be found in the first two energy shells, leaving 4 for the third energy shell.
The element silicon has 14 protons and 14 neutrons in the nucleus of each atom . find the number of electrons in each of the electron shells of aneural atom?
A neutral silicon atom has 14 electrons, which are distributed among its electron shells according to the Aufbau principle. The first shell can hold up to 2 electrons, the second shell can hold up to 8 electrons, and the third shell can hold the remaining 4 electrons. Therefore, the distribution of electrons in silicon is 2 in the first shell, 8 in the second shell, and 4 in the third shell.
How do positive and negative charges in the outer shell of an atom connect with each other?
The outer shell of an atom is populated by electrons, which have a negative charge. Protons, which have a positive charge hang out in the nucleus of the atom.
What are two particles in an atom?
There're two particles in the atom nucleus (protons and neutrons)
How do the energy and the most probable location of an electron in the third shell of an atom compare to the energy and the most probable location of an electron in the first shell of the same atom?
in the third shell, an electron has more energy and is further from the nucleus
