What is the speed of electron in shell?
speed of electrons varies from shell to shell . it increases from inner orbit to outer orbit
Where is a electron?
In atoms. More specifically, they orbit the nucleus of an atom, in the aptly name electron cloud. Or electron shell.
Which elements have only 1 electron orbit or shell?
Hydrogen and Helium
What is another name for the electron shell?
Orbital x ray
Which electron orbit is considered higher the valence shell or the s-orbital?
Usually the valence shell - but that can be the S-orbital too.
What number of electrons that can be held in first orbit closest to the nucleus?
The orbit or electron shell closest to the nucleus is the 1s sub-shell. It can hold 2 electrons before the 2s sub-shell is filled. H and He have their electrons in this shell (the 1s)
Sodium has one electron in its outer shell According to the octet rule?
I think it wants to give up an electron
Why is there an unfilled orbit?
In any electon shell, each orbital must have one electron already present before any more can be added to any particular energy level. This is known as Hunn's Rule.
What is the difference between an electron shell orbital or cloud?
The shell is the principle energy level, and is defined as 1, 2, 3, etc. (or K, L, M, etc). An orbital is the spacial orientation of the orbit, such as px, py, pz, where the orbit is a p orbit, and the orbital is the x, y, or z orientation of that orbit. This is a mathematical expression of where the electron is most likely to be found. The electron cloud is more of a visual representation of the electrons surrounding the nucleus, and is based on the electron orbitals.
Atoms in what group has one less electron than a full orbit?
Atoms in Group 1, also known as alkali metals, typically have one less electron than a full outer orbit. These elements have one electron in their outermost shell, making them highly reactive and likely to lose that electron to achieve a more stable, full outer shell configuration.
What is the center of the atom?
The center of an atom is a nucleus. In the center of the nucleus, there is protons and neutrons. Around the atom, is the shell. Using the shell, as an orbit is the electron.
What is structure of electron shells?
Bohr suggested about the shell or orbit around the nucleus in an atom... he suggested that orbit is circular but according to the researches. the different scientist told that orbit is three dimensional or spiral structure.....
