The elements that are characterized by having only five electrons in the p sublevel belong to which family of elements?
The halogens have 5 electrons in the p sublevel.
What sub atomic particles get involved in chemical bonding?
The electrons
What particles might be found in shells around a nucleus?
The particles found in the area surrounding the nucleus are called electrons. Electrons are attracted to the protons in the nucleus, but are repelled from other electrons. This is why they can be found orbiting the nucleus.
Do alpha particles and helium atoms have same electrons?
No. The difference between them is that helium atoms have electrons, and alpha particles don't.
What is in the cloud of negatively charged particles that surround an atom?
Electrons
What are the electron of argon?
Electrons are fundamental particles and they are the same, whatever element they belong to.
Which particles belong in the outermost energy level i.e. Valence Shell of an atom?
electrons
What type of protons are electrons?
Protons are not electrons. Protons (and neutrons) are in the family of subatomic particles called "baryons", while electrons are in the family called "leptons".
Atoms that have the same number of valence electrons in their outer shell?
Such atoms belong to a group in the periodic table of elements.
How many valence electrons belong to the alkali metals family?
18 and a half
Does fluorine belong in the halogen family?
Yes, it does, this is because its outermost shell consists of 7 electrons.
Which subatomic particle determines reactivity?
Electrons, for chemical reactions
What are the particles called in the space around the nucleus?
these particles are called quarks
What the electrons are made up of?
Electrons are very low-mass particles with a negative electrical charge.Electrons are fundamental particles and so cannot be broken down into anything Electrons are one species of leptons. The family is composed of 6 particles:MuonElectronTauElectron NeutrinoMuon NeutrinoTau Neutrino
What are the particles of subatomic particles?
These particles are: proton, neutron, electron.
The elements that are characterized by having only five electrons in the p sublevel belong to which family of elements?
The halogens have 5 electrons in the p sublevel.
What particles are located in the electron cloud?
Electrons are the particles found in electron clouds.
