The electrons that occupy the outermost filled shell are called?
Outer energy level electrons, or valence electron.
Which sublevel will contain electrons with the greatest energy?
Among all the subshells present in a given shell, f-subshell has the highest energy.
What determines an energy level?
Electron configuration is the arrangement of electrons in an atom, which is prescribed by three rules - the aufbau principle, the Pauli exclusion principle, and Hund's rule. (1) aufbau principle - States that each elcetron occupies the lowest energy orbital available. (2) Pauli exclusion principle - States that a maximum of two electrons may occupy a single atomic orbital, but omly if the electrons have opposite spins. (3) Hund's rule - States that single electrons with the same spin must occupy each equl-energy orbital before additional electrons with pposite spins can occupy the same orbitals.
What subatomic particles surround the nucleus?
Electrons occupy special regions called energy levels, or shells, which surround the nucleus.
Two objects can not occupy the same space at the same time?
This is known as the Pauli Exclusion Principle. This was stated by the physicist Wolfgang Pauli in 1925 regarding electrons.
What is the maximum of electrons that can occupy one orbital?
2 electrons is the maximum number for an single orbital.
When can two electrons occupy the same orbital according to Pauli's exclusion principle?
If two electrons are to occupy the same orbital, they must have opposite spin.
Can two electrons occupy a single orbital?
of course they can. They have to be of opposite spin and two is the maximum number that can occupy one orbital.
How many electrons occupy the second orbital?
8
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy orbital?
6
May two electrons occupy the same space orbital in an atom?
Two electrons can occupy the same space orbital in an atom if they have different spins. This is known as Hund's Rule.
Electrons can occupy the same orbital if an only if they have opposite?
Spin
How many electrons can occupy a single molecular orbital?
Every orbital is different. 2 can occupy the first orbital then 8 can occupy mostly the rest. When you start getting really low on the periodic table orbitals start holding 16, but not till u get really low
What is the Maximum number of electrons into 4p orbital?
An orbital can only occupy maximum of 2 electrons. As p orbital consist of 3 orbitals. And has 3 orientations. Px, Py, Pz. So as there are 3 orbitals so p orbital can occupy at the maximum 6 electrons regardless of principle quantum no.. In 4p 4 is principle quantum no. So it represent 4p represent the p orbital of 4th shell. So it also occupy at the maximum of 6 electrons.
How many electrons occupy p orbital in silicon atom?
8
2 electrons can occupy the same orbital only if?
they have opposite spin
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy an sp3 hybrid orbital?
2
