The outer most shell of an atom is called the?
Valence shell
What is the outer-most shell of an atom called?
valence shell
What is the outer shell of a rocket called?
The 'rocket body' .
Atoms are made up of tiny particles such as protons neutrons electrons which are known as what particles?
Protons and neutrons form the nucleus of an atom while electrons form the shell of an atom. The electrons in the shell of the atom exist in distinct layers. Those in the outer layer take part in chemical reactions and are involved in electricity. Electrons are also basic particles called leptons. Protons and Neutrons are not basic particles but are composite particles called haldrons. They consist of three basic particles called quarks. Quarks are a basic particle called fermions.
What is it called when an electron has 8 electrons in its outer shell?
when an element has 8 electron in outer shell it is said to be inert. inert gases are called noble gases.
The likely location of the negatively charged particles in an atom is called an?
The negatively charged particles of an atom are in an outer shell.
The outer most shell of an atom is called the?
Valence shell
What is the outside of particles called?
the shell
What is the outer shell of a plane called?
The outer shell of a plane can be called the skin. The smoother the skin the faster the plane passes through the air.
An egg with an outer hard shell is called?
An egg with an outer hard shell is called the cuticle or bloom. It helps keep out bacteria and dust.
What is a tough outer covering of a mollusk called?
It is a shell, as in a cockle shell or oyster shell.
What is the outer-most shell of an atom called?
valence shell
Outer shell electrons is known as?
The outer shell is called the valence shell
What is the outer layer of an airplane called?
the shell
What are the two names for the outer most shell of a atom called?
Valence shell and Ultimate Shell
Are exchanged or shared during the formation of a chemical bond?
They are the electrons in the (outer) valence shell
If an element is chemically active what is the state of its outer electron shell?
The key to "happiness" for an atom is a full outer electron shell. (The outer electron shell is called the valence shell.) There are two conditions that cause a shell not to be full. Either it has only an electron or two (or three) in the outer electron shell or it's short an electron or two in that outer shell. The direct answer to the question is that if an element is chemically active, its outer electron shell is incomplete or is not full.
