How many electrons does the first shell of a atom contain?
First shell contains atmost two electrons. The formula is 2n. where n is the no. of shell u want to calculate its capacity of no of electrons..thanku
How do you know how many electrons need to go in the second shell?
The formula is 2n2 where n is the principal quantum number (the "shell" number). In this case the second shell has a principal quantum number of 2 so 2X 22 = 8
Two electrons in helium are placed in only one shell while three electrons in lithium occupy two shells?
It is because the two electrons in helium are placed in K-shell. The K-shell has the capacity of only two electrons. Therefore, in Lithium the third electron is placed in the L-shell. You can find the capacity of a shell to hold electrons by the formula 2n2 where n is the shell no.
What is the chemical formula of the aluminum ion?
Here is the equation - Al3+ + 3e- -> Al
What is the numbers of electrons in each shell?
According to one of Lewis' theories, each shell has a maximum number of electrons using the formula 2n2 where n = the shell number. For example: 1st shell = 2(1)2 = 2 electrons maximum; 2nd shell = 2(2)2 = 8 electrons maximum.
What is the formula for iodide ion?
I-1 It is Iodine with an electron added to complete the outer shell.
What Formula 1 team is Shell a major sponsor of?
Ferrari
What is the Formula for total surface area of a spherical shell?
3πR2 + πr2
The maximum number of electrons that can be in the second or third electron shell is?
first shell - 2 electronssecond shell - 8 electronsthird shell - 18 electronsfourth shell - 32 electronsfifth shell - 50 electronssixth shell - 72 electronsseventh shell - 98 electronseighth shell - 128 electronsninth shell - 162 electronstenth shell - 200 electronsetc.The general formula for the number of electrons in shell n is 2*(n**2).
What is the maximum number of electrons that can be in the second or third electron shell?
first shell - 2 electronssecond shell - 8 electronsthird shell - 18 electronsfourth shell - 32 electronsfifth shell - 50 electronssixth shell - 72 electronsseventh shell - 98 electronseighth shell - 128 electronsninth shell - 162 electronstenth shell - 200 electronsetc.The general formula for the number of electrons in shell n is 2*(n**2).
What is the most number of electrons that can be found in the first shell of an atom?
The max electron occupied in any shell is determined by formula 2n square..so in first shell 2(1 square)=2...
How many electrons does the first shell of a atom contain?
First shell contains atmost two electrons. The formula is 2n. where n is the no. of shell u want to calculate its capacity of no of electrons..thanku
The total number of electrons inan electron shell is reepresented by the formula 2n . is this correc?
The maximum number of electrons in a shell / energy level is given by 2n2.
How do you know how many electrons need to go in the second shell?
The formula is 2n2 where n is the principal quantum number (the "shell" number). In this case the second shell has a principal quantum number of 2 so 2X 22 = 8
How many electrons are in the first level of a phosphorus atom?
Electron shell of phosphorus has formula 2, 8, 5. This means that the first layer of its shell holds 2 electrons.
What is the maximum number of electron the n 2 electron shell can hold?
8
