How many electrons are in the alkali metals shell?

There is 1 electron in the outer shell of a group one alkali metal. Just the same as there would be two electrons in the outer shell of a group 2 element.


What element has 3 full shell electrons?

This question is unclear. If you mean 3 full electron shells and nothing else, then it would be argon. But every element after argon has 3 full electron shells also, but they also have other shells with electrons. If you mean a full 3rd energy shell such as in having 3d10 electrons, then it would be Zn but Zn also has 4s2 electrons. So, the question is a vague one.


What element would have a full valence shell on the periodic table?

The noble gases helium and neon are the only elements with completely full outer shells.


What chemical groups are inert and generally not involved in chemical reactions?

Atoms that have 8 electrons in their outer shell are "inert." These would most likely be the noble gases. Like: Helium, Neon, Argon, etc.


What does calcium not bond with?

I would imagine, logically, Calcium would react with every element except the Noble Gases - as they already have full outer energy levels, thus being unreactive. You will often find one calcium reacting with one element from group 6, for example Oxygen. CaO (as they strive to reach a full outer shell.)

How many electrons are in argon the element?

All noble gasses have 8 valence electrons which means outer electrons. As for electrons overall, argon would have 18.


How many electrons would carbon have in its outermost shell?

1 atom of the element, carbon, would have 4 electrons in its outer most shell. It's electron configuration is 1s2 2s2 2px1 2py1. 2 is the outer most shell, so there are 4 electrons in shell 2.


Why do noble gases not normally form compounds?

Noble gases have a full outer shell, meaning that they have no valence electrons and have 8 electrons in their outer shell. If the outer shell is full they do not need electrons, so they would not want to bond with another element to form a compound.


An atom of element X has two outer electrons that do not fill the outer shell is it a metal?

It would be a non-metal and a halogen. Group 18 or the noble gases, all have 8 electrons in their outer shell. Therefore, the group before it would have seven electrons in the outer shell. This group is made up of all non-metals.


How many electrons would be expected in the outer most shell of an atom with an atomic number of 10?

Given what we know about electron structure, we would expect there to be 8 electrons in the outer shell of an atom with the atomic number of 10. And that's how many there are. Element 10 is neon, and like all noble or inert gases, it has a full outer shell.There are only two electron shells for all the elements up through element 10 (neon). The first shell will only accept 2 electrons. That's the s shell, and it's the outer shell (and the only shell) for helium (the lightest inert gas). The next 8 electrons will fill the second electron shell, which is the p shell. That means element 10 (the inert gas neon) will have a full s shell (2 electrons) and a full p shell (8 electrons).


What element does not bond easily because it has a full outer shell?

Atoms that have a full outer shell do not bond easily with other substances.This question could be changed into "What are some of the elements that form bonds easily because it does not have a full outer shell", in which case the answer would be iron, copper, hydrogen, ect. The other possible question is "What are some of the elements that don't form bonds easily because it has a full outer shell". In that case, the answer is helium, argon, krypton, neon, and a few others.group 18 is the noble gases and cotains all gaseous elements such as:helium(He), Neon(Ne), Argon(Ar), an krypton(Kr), among others. these elements are considered non_reactive elements because they have a full outer shell of electrons making their atomic structure very stable


How do you find valency of any element?

The valence is the outer most shell and im assuming you need the amount of electrons on the outer most shell which would be the valence electrons. There can be no more than 8. The rule is 2-8-8. It could be done by referring to the group of that element in the periodic table.


What is the total number of electrons found in the valence shell of an alkaline element in the ground state?

244 An interesting answer...I would have thought that they all have 2 electrons in the outer shell in their ground state.


How many electrons are in the alkali metals shell?

There is 1 electron in the outer shell of a group one alkali metal. Just the same as there would be two electrons in the outer shell of a group 2 element.


How many electrons does Magnesium have in its outer most shell?

Magnesium has a total of 12 electrons. The electron configuration would be 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2. Therefore, 2 electrons in it's outer shell.
