Answer When the outermost shell(valence shell) is filled the atom is to be most stable.
First Shell: holds up to 2 electrons
Second Shell: holds up to 8 electrons
Third Shell: holds up to 18 electrons
Fourth Shell: holds up to 32 electrons
Atoms are most stable when the outer most ring has 8 electrons and the
number of electrons are equal to number of protons.
An atom can be chemically stable when its electrons shell is full. For many elements, this means having 8 electrons in their outer levels, while a couple of them need at least two.
When the outermost electron level is full.
When they don't have complete outermost shell or they have unpaired electrons in their outermost shell.
When It has less energy and it's outermost orbit is filled then atom is most stable
When they have a full outer shell. In main group chemistry, this generally follows the octet rule
when it has 8 electrons
Steal an electron from an atom of a different element.
Eight electrons, called an octet, are needed by most atoms in order to be stable.
A stable magnesium atom has 12, 13 or 14 neutrons. The atom with 12 neutrons is the most common one.
yes that is true, it does make up an atom stable.
Probably cesium fluoride, since it combines the least electronegative (non-radioactive) element with the most electronegative one.
True
Steal an electron from an atom of a different element.
It becomes most stable when its nucleus is filled, not when it is filling it.
The ground state.
Yes, Chlorine atom is stable
less stable
An atom is stable if it does not undergo decay.
A completley filled out electron level makes the atom stable
An atom becomes stable by gaining or loosing electrons.
Having an equal number of anything does not make an atom stable.
hydried is more stable than H-atom
gaining 1 electron
