If an atom has 6 electrons in its outer energy level it will acquire two more electrons two give it a full octet. This will be done through the formation of two chemical bonds or a double bond.
the maximum nubernof electrons in the outer energy level is 8
Phosphorous has 5 valence electrons. So, you need 3 more to complete it.
Outer electrons
Look at the first element on the periodic table. The first energy level holds only two electrons, so Helium has filled its outer energy level. Atoms with an outer energy level that is not fill will fill it up by bonding with other atoms and sharing electrons.
An element that has two outer electrons is carbon. Carbon would not use the energy to gain six more electrons when it can easily get rid of the two outer electrons.
yes.they have the maximum number of electrons in their outer energy level?
Boron has 3 electrons in it's outer level.
When an atom absorbs a photon its energy is transferred to outer shell electrons. The result will be the transition of an electron to a higher energy state.
Electrons in the outermost principal energy level are called valence electrons.
Two electrons
The are the valence electrons.
8 electrons
No. Valence electrons are the electrons in the outer most orbit (or energy level) and not in outer most orbital.
outer energy level
nobel gases has few electron in the outer energy level
3
