Beryllium- 1s2, 2s2 or [He] 2s2
Magnesium- 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2 or [Ne] 3s2
Calcium- 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p6,4s2 or [Ar] 4s2
Strontium- 1s2, 2s2, 2p6,3s2,3p6, 4s2, 3d10, 4p6,5s2 or [Kr] 5s2
group 18 has completely filled electronic configuration and hence are stable. group 1 and group 2 have 1 and 2 electrons respectively in their valence shells and needs to lose these to attain completely filled electronic configuration. hence they are reactive.
because they have completely filled electronic configuration.
It is in Group O or Group 8. Also known as noble gas, they do not react with other elements as they do not have to react to get a stable configuration.
The electronic configuration of Mg is 2,8,2, there are three electronic shells so it belongs to 3rd period, due to presence of 2 electrons in last shell it is in II group (II-A) of periodic table.
They have one valence electron. If this electron is lost, the atoms form cations with the electronic configuration of the nearest noble gas.
The electronic configuration of sodium is [Ne]3s1. Sodium has one valence electron. And it belongs to group 1. The valence electron is in 3s orbitals and it tells that sodium is a s-block element and is in period 3.
valence electrons and electronic configuration.
valence electrons and electronic configuration.
The outer electron in the electronic configuration give idea of the group in the Modern Periodic Table & also period.
these elements have 5 electron in the valence shells and have configuration of ns np5
Elements that have configuration of ns2np5 are members of the Halogen group(Group VIIA). They are, Fluorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine.
group 18 has completely filled electronic configuration and hence are stable. group 1 and group 2 have 1 and 2 electrons respectively in their valence shells and needs to lose these to attain completely filled electronic configuration. hence they are reactive.
They all have 2 electrons in their outer shells.
because they have completely filled electronic configuration.
Beacause of electronic configuration (M.O.T)
Magnesium belongs to group-2. Its configuration is 2 8 2.
Only group 18 elements have noble gas configuration. All other elements lack a noble gas electronic configuration.
