Yes, electrons have been split into two smaller particles - holons and spinons. I refer you to : http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/davidgregory/2009/09/splitting_the_electron.html.

What is s block element?

S block elements are elements that contain their outermost electron in the s shell. S block elements are further divided into 2 groups.


What is the core of an electron?

The electron is an elementary particle. This means that it cannot be broken down further. Therefore, an electron does not have a "core".


Will an electron feel a greater force when it is close to the nucleus or when it is further away?

further away :)

An electron in a 2s orbital is on average closer to the nucleus.


The electron cloud is divided into what?

The electron cloud is divided into s, p, d, and f orbitals. These orbitals also occur at different principle energy levels.


Are atoms divided up into groups according to color?

No. Atoms are divided into groups according to their proprieties and electron configurations.


What are eras divided into?

The constituent time segments are epochs and periods, which are further divided into ages.


In an atom an electron that is close to the nucleus is on the highest enegry level?

No. The greater distance from the nucleus the more energy an electron has.


What is the relationship between ionization energy and the halogens?

The further you are down the halogen group (group 7) the lower the 1st ionisation energy (amount of energy required to remove 1 electron from the atom) is. This is because the electron in question becomes further from the positive charge of the nucleus the more electron shells there are, and electron shielding (the blocking of the effect of the positive charge's attraction) is increased.


Is Japan divided into provinces states or regions?

Japan is divided into regions and further subdivided into prefectures.


Why is electron shielding not a factor when you examine a trend across a period?

Electron shielding is not a factor across a period because they all have the same number of electron shells! No further (extra) shells means that they are all affected by electron shielding equally.
