What is the outer electron configuration for all group 1 elements?

The outer electron configuration for all group 1 elements is ns1, where n represents the energy level of the outermost electron. This means that group 1 elements have one electron in their outermost shell.


What is the name of the group with only one electron in their outermost energy level?

name the group of elements that have only one electron in their outermost energy level


What are some properties of the elements in group one?

Group 1 elements are metallic in nature. They have 1 electron in their outermost octet.


What is the number of valence electrons for the elements in group 1?

Elements in group 1 (alkali metals) have 1 valence electron. This single electron is in the outermost energy level of the atom, making these elements very reactive and likely to lose this electron to achieve a stable electron configuration.


What is group in periodic table?

In the periodic table, group indicates the number of valence electrons in the outermost shell. E.g. Group I- the elements in that group have one valence electron in the outermost shell.


Are group one or group two more reactive?

Group one elements are generally more reactive than group two elements. This is because group one elements have one electron in their outermost shell, making them more willing to react and form compounds in order to achieve a stable electron configuration. Group two elements have two electrons in their outermost shell, which makes them less reactive than group one elements.


Which group will have an electron configuration that ends in s2?

Elements in Group 2 of the periodic table will have an electron configuration that ends in s2. This group includes elements such as beryllium, magnesium, and calcium. They have two electrons in their outermost s sublevel.


Why lithium and other group 1 elements usually form positive ions while fluorine and other group 17 elements form negative ions?

Because group 1 has 1 electron in it's outer most shell and the have to fill the energy level, so they gave there electron and form positive ion (cation). And group 17 has 7 electrons in it's outer most shell and they need to complete their shell so the gain electron and form negative ion (anion).


What charge do all group 1 elements have why?

All group 1 elements have a +1 charge because they readily lose their outermost electron to achieve a full outer shell and attain a stable electron configuration.


Do each of the elements in Group 1 have the same or different numbers of electrons?

The Elements have a different Total Number of Electrons, but the same number of Valence Electrons.


Why do atoms of each element have 1 outer-level electron?

They don't. Of the main group, or representative elements, group 1 elements are the only ones whose atoms have only 1 electron in their outermost energy levels.


How many valence electrons are in the sodium family?

Elements in the sodium family (Group 1A or Group 1) have 1 valence electron. This is because they have one electron in their outermost energy level.
