How many electrons can go in the first second and third shell of an atom?
The first shell can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, the second shell can hold up to 8 while the third shell can also hold a maximum of 8.
How many electrons go in the first shell of oxygen?
In the first shell there are two electrons and in the second shell there are six electrons, but only the electrons in the second (outer) shell are valence electrons.
How do you know how many electrons need to go in the second shell?
The formula is 2n2 where n is the principal quantum number (the "shell" number). In this case the second shell has a principal quantum number of 2 so 2X 22 = 8
How many middle shell does aluminum have?
Aluminum has 3 electron shells, with the middle shell being the second shell. This second shell is also known as the innermost shell of valence electrons.
How many electrons will go in the first shell of sodium?
The first shell of an atom can hold a maximum of 2 electrons. Since sodium has an atomic number of 11, the first shell will be filled with 2 electrons, and the remaining 9 electrons will go into the second shell.
How many electrons are in the first and second shell of oxygen?
In the first shell of oxygen, there are 2 electrons, and in the second shell, there are 6 electrons. Oxygen has 8 electrons in total, with 2 of them in the first shell and the remaining 6 in the second shell.
How many electrons does carbon have on its second shell?
Carbon has 4 electrons on its second shell. This is calculated based on the maximum number of electrons that can occupy the second shell, which is 8.
How many electrons fit in the 2nd electron shell?
The second electron shell can hold a maximum of 8 electrons.
How many electrons does it take for the second shell to be considered full?
it takes 8 electrons for the second shell to be considered full
How many electrons can the second shell of an atom hold?
First Shell always has 2 electrons. Second shell onwards can have up to a maximum of 8 electrons.
How many electrons can be in the second shell of an atom?
4
How many electrons does a fluorine atom have in its second shell?
A fluorine atom has 7 electrons in total. In its second shell, fluorine will have a maximum of 8 electrons, but since it has 7 electrons already in the first shell, it will only have 1 electron in the second shell.
