What atom has the electronic structure 2 8 6?

Sulfur


What is the Electron configuration for the argon atom?

The electronic configuration of Argon (Ar) is - 8,8,8 because its in group 8 and is inert because it has a full octet. Happy to help ;)


What is the electronic structure of an atom with a proton number 5 and a nucleon number 11?

In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons. The electronic structure of an atom with five electrons would be 2, 3. The electron configuration would be 1s22s22p1.


Is Ar a atom or molecule?

Argon (Ar) is an atom not a molecule. An atom is singular whereas a molecule is a group of two or more atoms.


What is special about the electronic structure of argon?

Argon has completely filled orbitals. It obeys octet rule (8 electrons in the valence orbitals / shells) and is stable and chemically inert


What Are The Balanced Equations For Argon?

Argon has chemical symbol Ar. The balanced equations will depend on what other reactants are present, but argon being a noble gas tends to be unreactive due to its stable octet electronic structure.


Which element had the largest atom potassium or argon?

Argon.


What determines the chemical properies of an atom?

All chemical properties are determined by electronic structure.


Why does argon's electronic structure allow for better use in a light bulb?

Argon is inert. This means that the filament in a light bulb can be heated to a high temperature in an environment where it will not react with the surrounding gases.


An atom of argon rarely bonds to an atom of another element because an argon atom has?

An atom of argon has a completely filled outer shell. If you know about bonding, you will get what I mean. The argon atom does not want to give or receive or give electrons because it is already as stable as possible.
