Group 3 is part of the transition metal series. This means that the number of outer shell electrons the element has will depend on its oxidation state.

Which element has its outermost electrons in an S sublevel?

The element with its outermost electrons in an S sublevel is found in Group 1 and Group 2 of the periodic table. These elements have their outermost electrons in the S sublevel before transitioning to the D sublevel in subsequent groups.


What element is a S?

the elements belonging to group 1 and 2 of the Periodic Table are s-block elements. it includes elements in which the outermost subshell is s and that have 1 or 2 electrons in their outermost shell.


Out of these elements Fe Hg U Te and Y which is considered a group A element?

Yttrium (Y) is considered a group A element as it belongs to group 3 of the periodic table. The group A elements are also known as the representative elements or main group elements. These elements have their outermost electron configurations organized into groups on the periodic table.


Is halogen an element belonging to group 17 of the periodic table?

halogens are the element placed in the 17th group of the period table. they have valency 1 and are the most reactive and the most electronegative elements.Halogens include flourine,chlorine,bromine,iodine and astatine (the radioactive element) their electronegativity decreases down the group. halogens are also called as salt forming elements.


How many electrons are in the outermost shell of group 4 elements?

4.See the Related Questions for how to determine the number of electrons in the outermost shell of all the elements!


Which element in group 2 is the most active?

The ist group elements Alkali metals are most active elements.


How can you tell which group an element is in?

An element's group is determined by its location on the periodic table. Elements within the same group share similar chemical properties and have the same number of valence electrons. The group number corresponds to the number of valence electrons an element has in its outermost energy level.


Why do atoms of each element have 1 outer-level electron?

They don't. Of the main group, or representative elements, group 1 elements are the only ones whose atoms have only 1 electron in their outermost energy levels.


How many electrons do atoms of each of the following elements have in highest energy level (outermost shell)?

The number of electrons in the highest energy level (outermost shell) for an element corresponds to its group number in the periodic table. For example, Group 1 elements have 1 electron in their outermost shell, Group 2 elements have 2, and Groups 13-18 have 3 to 8 electrons, respectively. Transition metals typically have 2 electrons in their outermost shell, though their electron configurations can be more complex due to d-orbitals.


What determines the group an element is placed in?

The number of electrons in the outermost orbital.


What do elements within a group have a similar number of?

Elements within a group have a similar number of valence electrons. These electrons are responsible for the chemical properties of an element, which is why elements within the same group often have similar chemical behavior.


What are some properties of the elements in group one?

Group 1 elements are metallic in nature. They have 1 electron in their outermost octet.
