Just one valence electron. The electron configuration for K-42 is 2-8-8-1, meaning that there is one electron in the outermost "shell" of the atom.

What is the number of valence electrons in an atom of Boron in the ground state?
The total number of valence electrons in Boron's ground state is 2
What is the ground-state electron configuration of a neutral atom of manganese?
The ground-state electron configuration for a neutral atom of manganese is: 1s22s22p63s23p63d54s2 or [Ar]3d54s2
An electron in the outermost energy level of an atom is a?
The outermost electrons are called VALENCE electrons.
What is the number of electrons in the valence shell of an atom of aluminum in the ground state?
2 valence electrons are in an aluminum atom in the ground state.
What state is an atom in which an electron has moved to a higher energy level?
An atom in which an electron has moved up to a higher level is in an excited state. The lowest state of the atom is called the ground state.Ê
How does an electron position in an atom affect the energy it contains?
If there is an extra electron in the valence level then the electron is in the excited state and is carrying more energy. If the atom is normal then it is in the ground stte and contains low energy.
How does the ground state electron configuration of the hydrogen atom differ from that of a ground state helium atom?
The ground state electron configuration of the hydrogen atom is 1s1, and for helium it is 1s2.
Are the valence electrons held most tightly by the atom?
Valence electrons are the electrons least tightly held by the atom and by definition are the electrons in the outermost shell of the electron and are highest in energy. They are the electrons that often contribute to an elements reactivity and in the case of Sodium, which as one valence electron in its ground state, it "gives up" its electron when it comes in contact with water.
How does an electrons position in a n atom affect the energy it contains?
If there is an extra electron in the valence level then the electron is in the excited state and is carrying more energy. If the atom is normal then it is in the ground stte and contains low energy.
