If s and p sub levels of an atom of an element in period 3 are filled with electrons which orbitals are filled in this atom?
The Third
How many p orbitals are filled with electrons in a xenon atom?
the answer is 12!
How many electrons would a neutral atom of cadmium have?
The neutral atom of cadmium has 48 electrons.
How many half filled orbitals are in a arsenic atom?
Arsenic has three electrons occupying the three 4p orbitals in its valence shell. Hund's first rule tells us that they will each occupy separate orbitals before they start to pair up. So there are three half-filled orbitals in an arsenic atom.
What is the arrangement of electrons in the electron cloud?
The electron configuration of an atom is the arrangement of electrons in the electron cloud around the nucleus of the atom. This is an indication of the different orbitals that are occupied by electrons in the atom.
What is aufboud principle?
The Aufbau principle states that electrons will fill up the different orbitals in an atom in order, i.e. the s orbitals of an atom will be filled by electrons before the p orbitals.

How many electrons would a neutral atom of cadmium have?
The neutral atom of cadmium has 48 electrons.
How many outer orbital electrons are found in an atom of nitrogen?
Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons. Valence electrons are the electrons that are found in the outer most shell of an atom, and are consequently the electrons that move from atom to atom in the formation of compounds. The reason for this is a result of the electron configuration. A nitrogen atom has 3 orbitals; the 1s orbital, the 2s orbital, and the 2p orbital. In this case, the 2s and 2p orbitals are the valence orbitals, as they have the electrons with the most energy. With 7 protons, a neutral nitrogen atom has 7 electrons. The s orbitals can only hold 2 electrons, and the p orbitals can hold up to 6 electrons. The 1s orbital is filled first, leaving five electrons, then the 2s orbital is filled, leaving 3 electrons, and then these remaining electrons fill the 2p orbital halfway. There are a total of 5 electrons in the 2s and 2p orbitals, and since these orbitals have the most energy, there are 5 valence electrons.
How many half filled orbitals are in a arsenic atom?
Arsenic has three electrons occupying the three 4p orbitals in its valence shell. Hund's first rule tells us that they will each occupy separate orbitals before they start to pair up. So there are three half-filled orbitals in an arsenic atom.
What do atoms of less reactivity tend to have?
For one, the atom's outer circle is completely filled with the maximum number of electrons - it's valence orbitals are filled.
What is the arrangement of electrons in the electron cloud?
The electron configuration of an atom is the arrangement of electrons in the electron cloud around the nucleus of the atom. This is an indication of the different orbitals that are occupied by electrons in the atom.
What determines the number of hybrid orbitals produced by an atom?
Half filled orbitals or empty orbitals
Which species has 48 electrons?
Cadmium is the only neutral atom (not electrically charged) to have 48 electrons.
Where may electrons be found in the atom?
In the orbitals.
Electrons are organized in a series of what around the nucleus of an atom?
Electron shells, orbitals, and sub-orbitals.
