A transition metal is one of the metals that can use the inner shell before using the outer shell to bond. A alkaline earth metal is one of the elements of Group 2 of the Periodic Table.

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.

An electron in an atom's outer shell is shielded from the nucleus by what?

An electron in an atom's outer shell is shielded from the nucleus by inner-shell electrons. These inner-shell electrons repel the outer electron, reducing the net attractive force from the nucleus. This shielding effect helps explain why outer-shell electrons are more loosely bound and easier to remove during chemical reactions.


How many electrons are there in the outer shell of a neutral neon atom?

A neutral neon atom has 8 electrons in its outer shell. Neon has a total of 10 electrons, with 2 in the inner shell and 8 in the outer shell.


Do alkaline earth metals form ions with a plus 2 charge?

YEP! remember In science in order for the Alkali metals and Alkaline earth metals to become stable they must give AWAY electrons. The Earth metals have a Plus 2 charge because they give away 2 electrons on there outer shell!


What is the characterisitc of the outer electron shell of alkali metals?

What is the speed of electron in shell?

speed of electrons varies from shell to shell . it increases from inner orbit to outer orbit


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.
