Why does copper conduct electricity better than lead?

Good question. Metals conduct because of the sea of free electrons in the crystal lattice. Metal conductivity depends on how loosely these electrons are bound to the nuclei and how many free electrons. Most other properties of Cu and Fe are comparable. One possible reason is the electron configuration. For Cu, it is (2, 8, 18, 1) for (s,p,d,f) orbitals, respectively. For Fe, (2, 8, 14, 2). Cu has one 4s-orbital electron that can roam freely, because all 3d electrons are paired and act as a shield from the nucleus. Fe's outermost shell is filled with 2 electrons and the 3d shell is not filled. The 3d electrons do not roam as free as 4s electrons. Cu also has more count of electrons than Fe.

How many electrons in the following isotope Cu 59?

Copper (Cu) has an atomic number of 29, which means it has 29 protons. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. Therefore, the isotope Cu-59 also has 29 electrons.


How many electrons does an Fe atom have in a 3d Shell?

3d^6 Six electrons in the outer shell.


How many electrons and protons are found in the Cu plus cation?

The Cu+ cation is formed when a copper atom loses one electron. Therefore, it has one more proton than electrons. So, the Cu+ cation has 29 protons and 28 electrons.


How many electrons does an Mn atom have in its 3d subshell?

One Mn atom contains 5 electrons in it's 3d subshell, all of which are unpaired.


How many electrons can occupy the 2s subshell and 3d subshell?

Two electrons can occupy the 2s subshell, and 8 electrons can occupy the 3d subshell.


How many electrons does a Mn have in the 3d sub-shell?

Manganese (Mn) has a total of 25 electrons, and its electron configuration is [Ar] 3d^5 4s^2. In the 3d sub-shell, manganese has 5 electrons.


What is the ground state for Cu?

The ground state electron configuration for copper (Cu), which has an atomic number of 29, is [Ar] 3d^10 4s^1. This configuration reflects the filling of the 3d subshell with ten electrons and one electron in the 4s subshell. The stability of the fully filled 3d subshell contributes to the unique electron arrangement of copper compared to its neighboring elements.
