How many types of orbitals are present in atoms of elements in the third period of the periodic table?

There are three types of orbitals that involve the third energy level. 3s, 3p, 3d. But when only looking at the third period of the Periodic Table... The 3s pertains to Na and Mg. 3p pertains to Al, Si, P, S, Cl, and Ar. These tables, as you could say, are called Electron Configurations. Therefore, for Argon, Ar, the electron configuration would be 1s22s22p63s23p6 or in shorter version: [Ne] 3s23p6.

What similaries to element in the same period share?
Elements in the same grope share the same amount of energy shells, and valence electrons.
Write a sentence that describes the purpose of the periodic table?
The elements of the periodic table are arranged in groups and periods. All of the elements in a period have the same number of atomic orbitals where as in a group all the elements have the same number of valence electrons.
What do periods and groups have in common in a periodic table?
Every element in the top row (the first period) has one orbital for its electrons. All of the elements in the second row (the second period) have two orbitals for their electrons. It goes down the periodic table like that. This also means that the atomic weight of the elements gets larger and larger in each period.
What is a period in chemistry?
The periodic table of elements is not a real table with every element that exists but a chart with initials and these initials stand for the elements. For instance Al stands for aluminum and Na stands for sodium. Go figure right? :)
What is a period in the table?
A period is the horizontal row on the Periodic Table of the Elements.
What is the pattern in a period on the periodic table?
all elements in a period have the same amount of orbitals and if an element is in period 2 it has 2 orbitals if it is in period 3 it has 3 orbitals ..etc
Is oxygen and Fluorine in the same period on the periodic table?
Yes, oxygen and fluorine are present in the same period on the periodic table.These elements are present in period-2.
What is a period of the elements?
the horizontal row on the periodic table in which the element is present is its period
Fourth period in periodic table?
This comprises all elements which have one or more electrons in their fourth shell. They comprise the fourth row of the periodic table.
Are elements with similar chemical properties found in the same period or group on the periodic?
Elements with same properties are present in same group. They are not present in same period. For example- alkali metals are present in same group.
What similaries to element in the same period share?
Elements in the same grope share the same amount of energy shells, and valence electrons.
Is Butane in group 2 of the Periodic Table?
The periodic table lists the elements and not compounds. Butane, C4H10, is an organic molecule / compound and hence is not present on the periodic table. The elements that make up butane (carbon and hydrogen) are present on the periodic table. Carbon: group 14, period 2 Hydrogen: group 1, period 1 Besides, group 2 elements are alkaline earth metals.
Write a sentence that describes the purpose of the periodic table?
The elements of the periodic table are arranged in groups and periods. All of the elements in a period have the same number of atomic orbitals where as in a group all the elements have the same number of valence electrons.
Why does the octet rule not hold for many compounds containing elements in the third row of the periodic table and beyond?
Atoms of elements in the third period are less subject to destabilization from additional electron-electron repulsions.The third shell contains d orbitals that are relatively close in energy to 3s and 3p orbitals and provide an allowed energy state for extra electrons.Atoms of elements in the third period have the space and available orbitals to accommodate extra electrons.
Where does beryllium boroncarbonnitrogenoxygenfluorine and neon belong in periodic table?
All of these elements are present in period-2. They have 2 shells.
The period on the periodic table tells you what?
The group to which the element belongs and, therefore, its chemical properties.
Define periodicity as it relates to the organization of elements on the periodic table?
The relationship is that the elements are organized by periods. Each row is a period and it goes from left to right. Each row is a period identified by different colors. Elements on the same row have something in common. All of the elements in a period have the same number of atomic orbitals. For example all the elements on the 1st row have only one orbital for its electrons. All the elements on the 2nd period (row) have two orbitals for its electrons. This repeats to period (row) 7. - Brian Tui
