non-metals have between 3 and 8 electrons in the outer shell. You can tell how many they have by looking at which period they're in on the Periodic Table, period 13 elements have 3, period 15 elements have 5 ect.
What else can I help you with?
How many electrons will metals generally have in their outer shell?
Metals generally have 1 to 3 electrons in their outer shell. These outer shell electrons are loosely held and can be easily lost, which is why metals tend to form positive ions in chemical reactions.
What is one of the metals that can use the inner shell before using the outer shell to bond?
Copper is an example of a metal that can use its inner shell before outer shell electrons to bond. It has a configuration of 3d104s1, and the 4s electrons are used before the 3d electrons in bonding reactions.
How many electrons does does nitrogen and bromine have in the outer shell?
Nitrogen has five electrons in its outer shell and bromine has seven in its outer shell.
An atom of element X has two outer electrons that do not fill the outer shell is it a metal?
It would be a non-metal and a halogen. Group 18 or the noble gases, all have 8 electrons in their outer shell. Therefore, the group before it would have seven electrons in the outer shell. This group is made up of all non-metals.
How many electrons dose boron have in its outer shell?
Boron has three electrons in its outer shell
Does argon has the same number of electrons in its outer shell as magnesium metal?
No. Argon has eight electrons in its outer shell and magnesium has two electrons in its outer shell.
How many electrons will metals generally have in their outer shell?
Metals generally have 1 to 3 electrons in their outer shell. These outer shell electrons are loosely held and can be easily lost, which is why metals tend to form positive ions in chemical reactions.
What is similar about the outer shell of electrons in the alkaline earth metal family?
The outermost shell contains two electrons.
How many electrons are in the outer shell of a rare earth metal?
2
What number of electrons in the outer outer shell of Cl?
A chloride anion contains eight outer shell electrons, one more than the seven outer shell electrons found in a chlorine atom.
What are the inner shell electrons?
Inner shell electrons are electrons that are located closer to the nucleus of an atom, shielded by outer electron shells. They have lower energy levels compared to outer shell electrons and are generally not involved in chemical reactions.
What is one of the metals that can use the inner shell before using the outer shell to bond?
Copper is an example of a metal that can use its inner shell before outer shell electrons to bond. It has a configuration of 3d104s1, and the 4s electrons are used before the 3d electrons in bonding reactions.
How many electrons does does nitrogen and bromine have in the outer shell?
Nitrogen has five electrons in its outer shell and bromine has seven in its outer shell.
How many outer shell electrons does copper have?
Copper is a non metal element. There are 29 electrons in a single atom.
Does calcium has the same number of electrons in its outer shell as magnesium metal?

An atom of element X has two outer electrons that do not fill the outer shell is it a metal?
It would be a non-metal and a halogen. Group 18 or the noble gases, all have 8 electrons in their outer shell. Therefore, the group before it would have seven electrons in the outer shell. This group is made up of all non-metals.
When a group 1 metal reacts what happens to the outer shell electrons of its atoms?
When a group 1 metal reacts, its outer shell electron(s) are transferred to another atom or shared in a chemical bond. This results in the metal ion having a full outer shell of electrons, usually achieved by losing one electron to become stable with a +1 charge.
