What else can I help you with?
On the periodic table what tells you which subshell of an atom is being filled?
The period number on the periodic table tells you which energy level (shell) of an atom is being filled. The subshell within that energy level is determined by the block in which the element is located on the periodic table. For example, elements in the s-block fill the s subshell, elements in the p-block fill the p subshell, and so on.
What is the name of elements whose outermost s and p sublevels are filled?
All the noble elements to the far right of the periodic table have their s and P sublevels in their valence shell filled, hence they are nonreactive.
In a Bohr diagram how many electrons are in each shell?
There are 4 electron sub-shells: s, p, d, and f. These letters stand for sharp, principal, diffuse, and fundamental, but the names are not important. s subshells have 2 electons, while p subshells have 6, d subshells have 10, and f subshells have 14. There can be higher subshells, but these subshells require too much energy to fill and no element with a g subshell (the next subshell after f) has ever been synthesized. The first shell (i.e. the first period of the periodic table) has only s. Thus, the first shell has 2 electrons. The second shell has s and p subshells, so it has 2+6 or 8 electrons. The third shell has s, p, and d subshells. It ultimately has 18 electons. This can be misleading, however. The d subshell requires more energy to fill than the higher-shell s subshell. This is why the third period of the periodic table does not have a d section: the d electron subshell of the third Bohr shell does not fill until after the s subshell of the fourth Bohr shell has filled. Looking at the periodic table, you can see that the third period only has 8 electrons, while the 4th period has 18. The 18 electrons in the fourth period are the s subshell of the fourth shell, the d subshell of the 3rd shell, and the p subshell of the 4th shell. The fourth shell is similar to the third shell, but more extreme. The fourth shell has s, p, d, and f subshells, but the f subshell is not filled until two higher s shells have been filled. It does, however, fill out to 32 electrons in the 6th period of the periodic table. In the 6th period, the first period to have 32 electrons, there are 32 electrons, filling these subshells: s subshell of the 6th shell, f subshell of the 4th shell, d subshell of the 5th shell, and then the p subshell of the 6th shell. The fifth shell would ultimately fill out to a full 50 electrons and would do so in the 8th period of the periodic table. However, as previously noted, no substance has ever been found or generated with that many electrons. It would fill the s subshell of three shells above (i.e. shell 8) before it filled the g subshell of shell 5. No element in the 8th period has ever been synthesized, so a filled fifth Bohr shell has never been found. A good example for a Bohr diagram would be Astatine, which is in the 6th period. In the first shell of the Bohr diagram, you have 2 electrons (s subshell only). It is filled completely. In the second, you have 8 electrons (s and p subshells) and in the third you have 18 electrons (s, p, and d), and both shells are filled completely. In the fourth shell, you have 32 electrons (s, p, d, and f), and it is filled completely. In the fifth shell, you have 18 electrons. This is because only the s, p, and d subshells are filled. It would require too much energy to fill the f subshell of the 5th shell, so the electrons just go to the s, p, and d subshell of higher shells. The 6th shell has 7 electrons. The 2 electrons of the s subshell are filled first, and then 5 electrons go into the p shell.
Which atom in the ground state has a partially filled second electron shell?
The atom with a partially filled second electron shell in the ground state is lithium (Li), with 3 electrons occupying the first and second electron shells.
elements in which the s and p arbitals in the outer shell are entirely filled are?
These elements, known as the alkali metals (group 1A) and alkaline earth metals (group 2A), are those in which the outer-shell s orbitals are being filled. On the right is a block of six columns. These are the elements in which the outermost p orbitals are being filled.
Why p block elements are ot called transition elemets?
P block elements are not called transition elements because they do not have partially filled d subshells in their ground state electronic configuration. Transition elements are defined as those elements that have partially filled d subshells, which allows them to exhibit characteristics such as variable oxidation states and the formation of colored compounds. P block elements, on the other hand, have their valence electrons in the p subshell.
On the periodic table what tells you which subshell of an atom is being filled?
The period number on the periodic table tells you which energy level (shell) of an atom is being filled. The subshell within that energy level is determined by the block in which the element is located on the periodic table. For example, elements in the s-block fill the s subshell, elements in the p-block fill the p subshell, and so on.
What group of elements have 2 electrons in s subshell and 4 electrons in p subshell of their atoms valence shell?
It is group 16, also known as the chalcogens
Why are the groups 13-18 called p-block elements?
it is the name of the electron subshell that it ends in.
Is carbon transition element?
Carbon is group 14 element and comes under p-block elements. It is because its last electrons fall into the p-subshell. Its electronic configuration is 1s22s22p2 . Transition elements are the elements of d-block.They are named so because their position in the Periodic Table lies between the s-block and p-block elements. They have their last electrons filled in the d-orbital.
What is the maximum number of unpaired electrons in the s subshell and the d subshell and the p subshell and f subshell?
The maximum number of unpaired electrons in the s subshell is 2, in the p subshell is 6, in the d subshell is 10, and in the f subshell is 14. This is based on the maximum number of electrons that can occupy each subshell according to the Aufbau principle and the Pauli exclusion principle.
What is the maximum number of electrons a p subshell can contain?
A p subshell can contain a maximum of 6 electrons.
Is any element there without p subshell in valence shell in p block elements?
He does not have a p sub-shell in the valent shell. Because He has the noble gas configuration it is included in the p block.
How many electrons can a 5p sublevel hold?
The 5p subshell is a p-subshell, and as such is filled by 6 electrons - three pairs spinning in opposite directions.The number of electrons in each subshell is as follows:Subshell s p d f theoretical next subshellsNo. of e- 2 6 10 14 18, 22, 26, etc.
A subshell contains eight electrons. Which subshell could it be?
A subshell that contains eight electrons is the 3d subshell. The d subshell can hold a maximum of 10 electrons, but in this case, with eight electrons, it is likely filled with a combination of spin-up and spin-down electrons. Other subshells, such as p (which can hold a maximum of 6 electrons) or s (which can hold a maximum of 2 electrons), cannot contain eight electrons.
What is the name of elements whose outermost s and p sublevels are filled?
All the noble elements to the far right of the periodic table have their s and P sublevels in their valence shell filled, hence they are nonreactive.

Looking at the periodic table, you can see that the third period only has 8 electrons, while the 4th period has 18. The 18 electrons in the fourth period are the s subshell of the fourth shell, the d subshell of the 3rd shell, and the p subshell of the 4th shell. The fourth shell is similar to the third shell, but more extreme. The fourth shell has s, p, d, and f subshells, but the f subshell is not filled until two higher s shells have been filled.

The 2 electrons of the s subshell are filled first, and then 5 electrons go into the p shell.
