Elements in Group 1 become more stable by what an electron?
Elements in group two become more stable as they all have complete electron shell.They do not have valence electrons and hence they are less reactive.Some of the elements of group 2 are Barium,Magnesium and Calcium
Which group of elements most readily combines with group 17 elements?
Group 1 metals, such as sodium and potassium, readily combine with group 17 elements (halogens) to form salts. These metals have one electron in their outermost shell, which they can easily lose to achieve a stable electron configuration, while halogens are one electron short of a stable configuration and readily accept an electron to form a stable ion.
What is outer shell electrons do group 1 elements?
i guess you mean that the group 1 elements usually lose a electron in order to become stable because the outermost of the group 1 elements have only one valence electron and it is easy to lose one than to gain seven.
Which group in the periodic table would need only 1 electron to be stable?
The elements in Group 7A (halogens) on the periodic table would need only 1 electron to achieve a stable electron configuration by filling their outermost shell with 8 electrons. For example, elements like fluorine, chlorine, and bromine each need only 1 more electron to reach stability.
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.
Why does group 1 elements prefer to combine with group 17 elements?
Group 1 elements (alkali metals) prefer to combine with Group 17 elements (halogens) because alkali metals have one electron in their outer shell, which they can easily donate to achieve a stable electron configuration. Halogens, on the other hand, have seven electrons in their outer shell and can easily accept an electron to achieve a stable electron configuration. This electron transfer results in the formation of ionic compounds between alkali metals and halogens.
What element group gains or shares 1 electrons?
Group 17 elements, also known as halogens, typically gain one electron to achieve a full outer electron shell. Group 1 elements, known as alkali metals, often lose one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration.
What is the most reactive group of elements?
It is in Group 17 that you will find the most reactive elements. These elements all lack only one electron from having that "magic" electron configuration of the inert gases. That makes these elements very "hungry" to get that "last electron" so their electron structures become more stable.
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.
How is helium similar to group two elements?
Helium is similar to group 2 elements because it is a noble gas, meaning it has a full outer electron shell which makes it stable and unreactive. Group 2 elements also have stable electron configurations with filled s orbitals in their outermost energy level.
How many electrons does group 2 lose?
Group 2 elements lose 2 electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
Which element in group VIII are very stable?
all elements in group 8 are very stable as they have 8 electrons in their outermost electron shell, satisfying the octet rule. They are very stable and are called noble gas. they exist in a monoatomic gas.
