Carbon is the sixth element with a total of 6 electrons. In writing the electron configuration for carbon the first two electrons will go in the 1s orbital. Since 1s can only hold two electrons the next 2 electrons for C goes in the 2s orbital. The remaining two electrons will go in the 2p orbital. Therefore the C electron configuration will be 1s2 2s2 2p2.

How many electron configuration does chromium have?
This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.
How many electron groups in carbon disulfide?
This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.
Do transition elements have Lewis dot structures?
They do, it's just that they do not follow the octet rule. You have to find the electron configuration to find the dot structure.
How many core electron in C?
This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.
What is the number of electron shells in the element magnesium?
Rather than to give a simple number as answer, I suggest to look up Magnesium on wikipedia, where you will even find a picture with the electron configuration. (And this method can be applied to answer the same question for any other element.)
Which element is represented by the electron configuration 1s22s22p2?
If you mean 1s22s22p3, you would refer to the periodic table. Using 2p3, you would look at the second period (row), look at the p block, and count 3 elements to the right to find nitrogen.
How do you find the electron dot configuration?
to find the electron dot configuration of an element simply draw dots, symbolizing valance electrons, in a way that they are farthest from each other around the symbol of the element you are using.
How do you get the total number of valence electron?
if we find the electronic configuration, by 2n^2 rule, we can find it
How many electron configuration does chromium have?
This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.
How many electron configuration are in boron?
This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.
What is a stable electron configuration for neon?
The investigator will find that 1s2 2s2 2p6 is the electron configuration for neon.
How many electron in carbon?
there are 12 electrons in carbon. you can find this out by looking at the "ATOMIC NUMBER"
How many electron has in carbon nanoribbon?
This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.
How many electron groups in carbon disulfide?
This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.
Where would you find a electron?
outside the nucleus in the electron cloud
Do transition elements have Lewis dot structures?
They do, it's just that they do not follow the octet rule. You have to find the electron configuration to find the dot structure.
How do you find the arrangement of electrons of boron?
that would depend on if it in its elemental state or bonded, but its general electron configuration is 1s^2 2s^2 2p^1 the Lewis dot structure is .. . B. .
