2s Sublevel
The period number of an element corresponds to the energy level of its outermost electrons. Elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells. As you move from left to right across a period, the number of protons and electrons increases, resulting in higher effective nuclear charge, which affects the properties of the elements.
Elements in the same period on the periodic table have the same number of electron shells, which can result in similar chemical properties. However, elements in the same period can have different numbers of protons and electrons, leading to variations in atomic size and reactivity. Therefore, while elements in the same period may share some similarities, they can also exhibit distinct characteristics based on their atomic structure.
Antimony (Sb, # 51) has 5 valence electrons (and so do all the other elements in that group.)
Tungsten has 46 core electrons. Core electrons are the electrons found in all elements that are not valence electrons. Tungsten has an atomic number of 74, so it has 74 electrons in total.
Elements that have the same number of valence electrons are found in the same group of the periodic table. For example, all elements in Group 1 (e.g. H, Li, Na) have 1 valence electron, while elements in Group 18 (e.g. He, Ne, Ar) have 8 valence electrons. Valence electrons determine an element's chemical properties and reactivity.
Number of Electrons.
All elements comprising the period 7 in the periodic table are radioactive. In total this period has 32 elements.
The periods on the periodic table separate the elements according to which shell their valence electrons fall into. So, elements located in the third period will have the sum of all electrons contained in that period. For example: P has an electron configuration of 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p3 ......................sooo, add up all electrons from the third shell (3s2 & 3p3) to get the total number of valence electrons of the element.

Every element in the top row (the first period) has one orbital for its electrons. All of the elements in the second row (the second period) have two orbitals for their electrons. It goes down the periodic table like that. This also means that the atomic weight of the elements gets larger and larger in each period.
The row is called the period. Each element in the same period has the outermost electrons in the same shell (energy level). For example, the elements in the 3rd period all have the outermost electrons in the 3rd shell.
Tungsten has 46 core electrons. Core electrons are the electrons found in all elements that are not valence electrons. Tungsten has an atomic number of 74, so it has 74 electrons in total.
Elements in the same grope share the same amount of energy shells, and valence electrons.
Elements that have the same number of valence electrons are found in the same group of the periodic table. For example, all elements in Group 1 (e.g. H, Li, Na) have 1 valence electron, while elements in Group 18 (e.g. He, Ne, Ar) have 8 valence electrons. Valence electrons determine an element's chemical properties and reactivity.
No, not at all. The row tells you the energy level of the outermost electrons. So, in row 6 (Period 6) all the elements have electrons in the 6th energy level. The number of electrons in the outer shell is given by the group number (column).
