What is the electron configuration?
The arrangement of the electrons in an atom is known as its electron configuration.
What determines the electron-group geometry of a molecule?
Electronegativity of each atom is what determines the electron distribution of a bond. The electronegativity of an atom affects its distance in its valence electrons and its atomic number.
How do you tell if an atom is excited in electron configuration?
2 8 8 2
What is the size of an atom versus an electron?
an atom is larger than an electron
What happens when an electron is added to an atom it will acquire?
when an electron is added to an atom, the atom will acquire a negative charge.
About the electron configuration?
Electron configuration for an atom is the distribution of electrons on atomic orbitals.
What is the electron configuration?
The arrangement of the electrons in an atom is known as its electron configuration.
What is the atoms electron cloud?
The distribution of electron around an atom in various shells is sometimes referred to as electron cloud. If there are more electrons in certain space around the atom, that space is said to have a denser electron cloud.
What part of an atom is used to tell how one atom will bond with another atom?
Electron
What can you tell about an atom that has high electron negativity?
It is an anion.
How is the number of neutrons in an atom worked out?
they work because in every atom there is a neutron, electron and proton. the electron will tell you what the atomic number is and the neutrons and protons will tell you what element it is.
What does electrons look like around an atom?
An electron around an atom forms a sort of cloud; the cloud represents the probability distribution of finding the electron in different places. In the simplest case, this distribution is spherically symmetrical, but for the outer electrons, the distribution is more complicated. For more information, check the Wikipedia article on "Atomic orbital".
What specific field of science does an electron configuration apply to?
The specific field of science that an electron configuration applies to is quantum physics. Electron Configuration refers to the distribution of electrons in an atom.
What determines the electron-group geometry of a molecule?
Electronegativity of each atom is what determines the electron distribution of a bond. The electronegativity of an atom affects its distance in its valence electrons and its atomic number.
What does electron negativity tell about an atom?
It tells when an atom is in a bonded pair that it holds the shared pair of electrons closer
How do you tell if an atom is excited in electron configuration?
2 8 8 2
How many electron clouds does beryllium have?
An electron cloud is a general term to describe the distribution of electrons around an atom. Do you mean how many orbitals does Be have?
