What element is a noble gas that does not have eight electrons in its outer shell?
Helium is the element in the noble geses family that does not have an octet. Helium is the element in the noble geses family that does not have an octet.
What is the maximum number of electrons that a representative element can possess?
8 so then it is an Octet.
Atoms have a tendency to complete their outer shell or energy level This is known as?
The Octet Rule
Why is an element's placement on the periodic table important?
Elements are arranged left to right, and top to bottom in order of their increasing atomic number(number of protons), order generally coinsides with the increasing atomic mass. The different rows of elements are called periods. The period number of an element signifies the highest energy level an electron in that element occupies (in the unexited state). The number of electrons in a period increases as one traverses down the periodic table; therefore as the energy level of the atom increases, the number of energy sub-levels per energy level increases. One can tell if an element is metal, non-metal, or semi-metal just by looking at the placement on the periodic table.
Are Atoms which possess completed outer energy level or have a stable octet are inert?
yes(: of course
If an element has an octet of electrons in its highest energy level there are how many electrons in this level?
8: that's the meaning of "octet".
What is the first of the noble gas family whose highest energy level consists of an octet of electrons?
Neon
Who was the first member of the noble gas family whose highest energy level consists of an octet of electrons is?
Helium. It has completely filled first energy level with two electrons
What is the highest number that can be expressed by an octet?
32 BIT
What element is a noble gas that does not have eight electrons in its outer shell?
Helium is the element in the noble geses family that does not have an octet. Helium is the element in the noble geses family that does not have an octet.
Is 192.256.257.1 a valid ip address?
No. 255 is the highest octet. as know that th highest octet is the 255 and the third octet of this IP is more then standard so we can see it is not valid ip address the valid for this is: 192.255.255.1
What is a representative element with eight electrons in its valence shells is called?
Octet
What is unique about nonmetals with 8 electrons in the outermost energy level?
When an element has 8 electrons in its outer shell, then its valence shell is "complete" and because of the octet rule, the element will be pretty much inert. And then Xenon ruins the pattern T_T
What is the maximum number of electrons that a representative element can possess?
8 so then it is an Octet.
What was your clue for knowing the number of lines in an octet?
The clue for knowing the number of lines in an octet is that in a Lewis structure a line represents two electrons. This means that an element with four lines attached to other elements has an octet.
What does atoms have to do to fill the outermost energy level?
they need to either gain or lose electrons to create an octet. It depends on the atom. an octet is when an atom has a full outermost energy level
How does having an octet effect noble gases behavior in chemical reactions?
The full octet means the element is inert (non-reactive.)
